Dr Jemma Browne serves as Associate Professor in Architecture at Birmingham City University, where she teaches architectural history and theory, coordinates course delivery across architecture programs, and supervises PhD students while advancing the department's research environment.
Her academic foundation includes a 2018 Doctorate on "Spatial Representations of Memory and Identity in the City." Prior professional experience spans architectural practice in the Midlands, teaching at Nottingham Trent University, and leadership roles in national homelessness projects within the housing charity sector.
Research centers on urban cultural topography, examining how cultural identities manifest in post-industrial UK cities through spatial layering influenced by postcolonial migration. She investigates collective memory of diasporic communities and their role in shaping urban identity, connecting heritage studies with regeneration debates to bridge historical and contemporary urban landscapes.
Earlier ethnographic work analyzed Nottingham street life, revealing public space's dual social-economic functions and enriching urban design theory. This social justice background actively informs her pedagogical commitment to equality and diversity in architectural education.
