Seongkyung Cho is an Assistant Professor of Public Policy at Duke Kunshan University. Her research focuses on digital policy and governance and housing policy as two main pillars, with a distinctive emphasis on their intersection in digital housing policy. She examines how emerging technologies such as AI, public data, and online platforms influence policy implementation, public sector decision-making, and citizens' trust and participation, while also analyzing how housing program design and institutional contexts shape the strategies of landlords, tenants, and other policy actors in the United States and East Asian countries. By connecting these domains, she investigates how digital transformations reshape housing systems and how housing contexts provide a critical arena for understanding digital governance, aiming to identify mechanisms through which institutions and actors shape policy outcomes and to explore how design choices can enhance policy effectiveness. She employs comparative and mixed-method approaches to capture these dynamics, and her work has been published in leading journals such as Government Information Quarterly, Urban Affairs Review, Housing Policy Debate, and Journal of Urban Affairs. Seongkyung holds B.A.s in Economics from the Department of Food and Resource Economics and in Political Science from the Department of Political Science and International Relations, and an M.A. in Sociology from the Department of Sociology, all from Korea University, Seoul, South Korea, and a Ph.D. in Public Administration and Policy from Arizona State University's School of Public Affairs, Phoenix, Arizona, United States.
