Prof. Dr. Guangjian Tu is currently an associate professor of Law in the University
of Macau, a life member of Clare Hall (Cambridge University), an elected associate
member of the International Academy of Comparative Law, and a standing
member of the Chinese Society of Private International Law. Although his first major
was not law but medical science, his strong interests in law came to surface when
he was still an undergraduate student in the Science and Technology University of
Central China (Wuhan, PRC). After graduation from that university, he obtained a
diploma on law from Zhejiang University (Hangzhou, PRC) and was qualified to
be a lawyer and a judge, respectively, by sitting national examinations of the PRC.
Having served in the Intermediate Court of Ningbo (Zhejiang Province, PRC) for a
while, he left for UK to pursue his LLM and Ph.D. in the University of Aberdeen.
He formally started his academic career at the University of Macau in September
2007. Since then, he has been teaching and researching in the field of Private International
Law. So far, he has published two monographs and many academic articles
extensively on Chinese Private International Law in widely circulated and internationally
recognized journals.
