Short biography
Connor Hogan earned his Master of Science in Politics from University College Dublin (2021), where he also tutored in Political Theory and Comparative Politics. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Politics, Philosophy and Economics from Queen’s University, Belfast (2017). During his undergraduate studies, he spent two semesters at the University of Stockholm. For his master’s thesis, he explored how systems of labour law develop in extreme physical environments, to assess how the rights of future workers may be protected in outer space. He has also written on issues of citizenship and UK-EU space policy. As a pre-doctoral researcher within the Digitize! Project he is developing ethical and social standards for the collection and use of data in Computational Social Sciences. As part of this project he helped develop the Public Value Assessment Tool (PLUTO). Since May 2024, he has been working as a pre-doctoral researcher in the Data Solidarity Project in cooperation with the research platform Governance of Digital Practices and the Digital Transformations For Health Lab at the University of Geneva.
