Biography

Dr Chiang completed his PhD in Psychology at UCL and continued post-doctoral training at UCL. His training and teaching lie in the scope of Experimental Psychology.

Dr Chiang has worked in several countries, in the UK and US, Taiwan and Canada, renowned for their cultural diversity. Some of the students were mature and had work experience - this makes his teaching style close to the connected curriculum, linking knowledge and concepts to students and environment, as well as his research being a part of teaching material. His teaching focuses on the true understanding of concepts, not just superficial definitions and memorization.

Dr Chiang likes to stimulate students’ thinking and encourage discussion in class. He will adjust teaching paces in due course, depending on students’ learning progress. In assessment, Dr Chiang focuses on the learning progress with multiple assignments in different formats.
