My name is CHEN Chaofan, you can just call me “Frank.” I am a dedicated researcher specialising in International Relations, with a specific focus on China.

My academic interests include International Relations, Chinese Foreign Policy, the Domestic Dynamics of Foreign Policy, China, the Geopolitics of the Asia-Pacific region, Global Governance and Order, as well as Tertiary Education. My scholarly work has been published in the Journal of Contemporary China (where I currently hold the position of invited reviewer), Frontiers in Public Health, and in book chapters with Springer Nature and other esteemed publishers (including two published volumes, one under revision, and one under contract).

I hold a Master of Philosophy (MPhil) in Government and Public Administration from the School of Governance and Policy Science at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (awarded in October 2025; advisor: Associate Professor Seanon S. Wong 黄诗朗副教授). Prior to that, I earned a Bachelor of Social Sciences (First-Class Honours) in Globalisation and Development from Hong Kong Baptist University in 2023, under the guidance of Professor Simon XB Zhao 赵晓斌教授, along with a Certificate of Graduation in Social Studies from Beijing Normal-Hong Kong Baptist University.

I am also an enthusiast of classical music, with a devoted following of the Hong Kong Philharmonic. I enjoy organizing events in academic and social spheres and have a profound passion for travel and diverse cultural experiences.
