Roger Mullin has taught at Dalhousie School of Architecture since 2003. His research interests have investigated the materiality and imperatives of buildings, infrastructures and urban form; with a focus on coastal landscapes in the North Atlantic. This awarded work has supported exhibitions, publications, fellowships, artist residencies as well as built projects in Canada, Norway and Iceland. ​

In 2023, partnering with Indigenous community members and organizers of the North American Indigenous Games, Roger and students developed a series of tactical installations that supported youth athletes from across Turtle Island.

This year Roger was a keynote speaker at Atmosphere15 LAND+, an international landscape architecture conference held at the University of Manitoba, Canada. Roger has visited Iceland many times and has a body of research that documents landscapes and coastal areas around the country.

Roger is presently in Iceland acting as a Visiting Professor of Architecture at the Iceland University of the Arts and continues to develop his ongoing research.
