My research interests are broadly within philosophy of higher education and philosophical approaches to higher education. My current research focus on how the humanities are a mode of engaging with the world distinct from the social, natural, and life sciences. I am also researching the humanities generally, queer theory approaches to higher education, the ontology of policy, and approaches to dialogue within philosophy of education. A current research project, funded by Quality and Qualifications Ireland (QQI), looks at academic integrity and how this is understood by staff and students in Irish higher education, and what this tells us about how to best encourage academic integrity across institutions of higher education in Ireland.

• Title

  A Cost-Benefit Analysis of using the ICAI-McCabe Survey to Measure Beliefs and Knowledge about Academic Integrity in Irish Higher Education
  Summary

  For those working and studying in Irish higher education, the rapidly expanding range and types of academic misconduct are prompting renewed institutional and sectoral efforts to safeguard academic integrity. Central to dealing with such a critical topic is understanding what those working and studying in Irish higher education know and believe about academic integrity. This project will evaluate the challenges, costs, and benefits of adapting the ICAI-McCabe surveys of faculty and student attitudes and beliefs about academic integrity for use within the HEI sector in Ireland.

• Title

  How Much? The financial costs of being a postgraduate researcher
  Summary

  The recent call for as well as subsequent increase in the financial supports provided to postgraduate researchers (PGR) and the subsequent debate concerning their status within the academic `ecosystem" (for want of a better term), has largely been based on macro level data and anecdotal evidence. As noted by the Irish government commissioned report (Johnson and Cagney 2023) there is little in the way of fine- grained data regarding PGRs financial situation and contexts. Beyond the `income" component (which for convenience we will refer to as the `stipend" paid to students), little is known about the expenditure dimension of being a PGR. In summary, the study has been designed to investigate the financial costs associated with full and part-time doctoral study. The key areas to be explore are: 1) sources of income; 2) the extent and use of paid employment; 3) patterns of expenditure pertaining to: a) living costs (e.g. accommodation, food, utilities, child care etc.) and b) doctoral programme related activities; 4) the effects of financial situations on aspects of study and non-study life; 5) the demographical characteristics in relation to `1 to 4".
