Yong Huang, Ph.D in Philosophy (Fudan University) and Th.D in Religious Studies (Harvard University), is currently Fudan Distinguished Chair Professor at the School of Philosophy. Prior to his coming to Fudan University, he was a professor of philosophy at the Chinese University of Hong Kong (2013-2025) and Kutztown University of Pennsylvania (1996-2013). With training in both Western and Chinese philosophical traditions, his research focus has been on moral (both ethical and political) issues from a comparative perspective.

Huang served as, among others, the co-chair of the Confucian Tradition Group of American Academy of Religion, the Co-chair of the University Seminar on Neo-Confucian Studies at Columbia University, the President of Association of Chinese Philosophers in America, and the Chair of Department of Philosophy at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He is the founding editor-in-chief of Dao: A Journal of Comparative philosophy, the most prominent journal in English in non-Western philosophy. Huang is also the founding editor of the first and still the only companion series exclusively focused on Chinese philosophy, Dao Companions to Chinese Philosophy, with 20 volumes published so far. Recently, he has also launched a book series, Fudan Studies of Encountering Chinese Philosophy, with two volumes (on Michael Slote and Ernest Sosa respectively) and the third one (on Simon Blackburn) forthcoming), and (together with Professor WANG Qingjie) a book series in Chinese, Philosophy from Hong Kong (香江哲學). In addition, he sits on over 30 editorial boards of scholarly journals and book series in English and Chinese.

Huang has published extensively in the area of Chinese and comparative philosophy, ethics, political philosophy, and philosophy of religion, including 7 edited or co-edited volumes in English, five books in Chinese, and three monographs in English, in addition to over 100 journal articles and book chapters each in Chinese and English.
