Since joining BCU in 2019, Zaki has led and taught on a range of modules dealing with the following themes: the sociological imagination, doing public sociology, postcolonial politics, globalisation, race, ethnicity, gender, citizenship, intimate life, and selfhood. Previously, he was a lecturer at Liverpool Hope University and INTO City, University of London.
