Songpo Yang (杨松坡)

Greetings! I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of International Relations at Tsinghua University, and also a visiting Ph.D. student in the Department of Political Science at Columbia University, New York City, 2022–2023.

My research encompasses a range of topics including comparative political economy, elite politics, and Chinese politics. I’m also broadly interested in applying AI-driven methods with multimodal data in social sciences. My work has been published on International Affairs.

I hold an M.A. from Johns Hopkins SAIS, an M.L. from Tsinghua university, and a BA from University of International Business and Economics. I also worked at CITIC Securites Asset Management before getting back to Tsinghua to pursue my doctoral degree.

“每个人都会经历这个阶段，看见一座山，就想知道山后面是什么。
我很想告诉他，可能翻过山后面，你会发觉没有什么特别。回头看会觉得这边更好。
但是他不会相信 —— 
以他的性格，自己不试过又怎会甘心？”
