I am currently a member of the Migration and Mobilities cluster at the Asia Research Institute, National University of Singapore (NUS). I’ll be leaving NUS in October 2026 to commence my doctoral research at the School of Geography and the Environment, University of Oxford (funded by the Clarendon scholarship). Taking Sabah as a locus of theorizing, my doctoral project aims to understand irregularity not so much as a legal categorization, but as the structuring effects of the spatiotemporal ordering of urban infrastructure. I am contactable via email at: yogaprasetyo@nus.edu.sg.

Prior to NUS, I completed an MA in Migration Studies at the University of Sussex (funded by Chevening), where I won national awards including the UK Royal Geographical Society’s PopGRG Bob Woods Postgraduate Dissertation Prize, the Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies (JEMS) Best Dissertation Prize, and the UK Development Studies Association Master’s Dissertation Award (Highly Commended).
