Jeremy Siow is Assistant Professor of Political Science at Singapore Management University. His research examines how education, identity, and public policy shape political attitudes and intergroup relations. He is particularly interested in education politics and policy, ethnic identity, and the politics of Southeast Asia, using quantitative methods and causal inference to understand how institutions influence social cohesion and democratic participation.
His research has been published in leading international journals such as the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) and the Journal of Politics. His work explores topics including the impact of bilingual and civic education on ethnic tolerance, gender bias, voter behaviour, and public opinion, with a particular focus on Malaysia and Southeast Asia. More recently, his research has expanded to examine transnational propaganda, religious discourse, and the role of civics education in shaping citizen-state relations.
