Biography

Tiernan Henry is a geoscientist who works on surface water and groundwater issues and topics. He graduated from TCD in 1986 with a BA (Mod) in Natural Sciences. He completed his MSc in Water Resources Management (Hydrogeology) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1993. He taught hydrology & hydrogeology at UCG in the Department of Engineering Hydrology before moving into groundwater consultancy. For several years he worked in surface and groundwater management all around Ireland but his primary focus was in mine water management. In 2003 he joined the newly formed Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences (now the discipline of Earth & Ocean Sciences in the School of Natural Sciences) as a lecturer in environmental geology. He completed his PhD, at NUIG, (characterising the hydrogeology of the Tynagh Mine catchment) in 2014. He has completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Academic Practice and is currently completing an MA focused on assessing the impact of geoscience fieldwork on students' affective domain. He is a funded investigator with the Irish Centre for Research in Applied Geosciences (iCRAG: https://www.icrag-centre.org/). He is a member of the International Association of Hydrogeologists (IAH), the International Mine Water Association (IMWA), the Royal Irish Academy Multidisciplinary Geography & Geosciences Committee. He is the head of Earth and Life Sciences in the School of Natural Sciences at University of Galway, and the Deputy Head of the School of Natural Sciences. He curates and hosts the Vinyl Hours programme at Galway International Arts Festival.

My teaching is focused on hydrology and hydrogeology and I teach courses in these areas to third and fourth year undergraduate students. These courses sit within the broader EOS degree and are related to a variety of other EOS courses.
