Welcome to
Kang Siqin WEBSITE
I am currently an Assistant Professor in the School of Humanities and Social Sciences, the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen. I earned my Master
of Philosophy from the Department of Social Science at HKUST and obtained my PhD from the Department of Politics and Public Administration at
the University of Hong Kong.
My academic interests encompass a wide range of topics, including public opinion, state capacity, and digital governance. Additionally, I am keen on
exploring the political economy of contemporary China. For more information about my research, please visit my research page.
