Biography

Kevin Lougheed is a Senior Lecturer specializing in historical geography, focusing on the legacies of state-led education in the nineteenth century British Empire. He interacts with debates surrounding the decolonization of the curriculum and teaches a range of disciplines, placing special emphasis on geopolitics, colonialism/post-colonialism, and research skills. Prior to joining King's College London, Kevin worked in the Department of Geography at Trinity College Dublin from 2014 to 2016, where he taught a wide range of subjects in geography. He completed his PhD in 2013 and received a BA in Natural Science from Trinity College Dublin. His research investigates the emergence of state institutions and the role of colonial education through both traditional historical methodologies and modern quantitative methods, including Geographic Information Systems (GIS). This unique perspective facilitates a deeper understanding of the interplay between space and social relations in the emergence of these institutions. Kevin's notable contributions to the field include articles on the reshaping of education in colonial governance and the implications of national education in pre-Famine Ireland, among others.
