During her time as a PhD candidate at NTU, she had taught Modern Chinese Diplomatic History at Soochow University and Critical Approaches to World Politics: An Introduction at NTU.

Wan-Ping’s research interests include Sinophone as well as Chinese International Relations (IR) theories, Chinese international thoughts, and Confucian/Daoist political thoughts in re-imagining post-Westphalian world politics, particularly how do these theoretical efforts contribute to the empirical research of the discipline and transform the practice of IR broadly speaking. She also works on critical Chinese IR theories with the perspectives of feminism. In these respects, she published a monograph based on her PhD dissertation, Sinicization as method: Qin Yaqing’s intellectual journey from the Chinese school of International Relations to a Relational Theory of World Politics (published in Traditional Chinese) in 2023. And her peer-reviewed article, Indefinite healing: China’s ‘One Country, Two Systems’ formula over Hong Kong from a Daoist–Zhongyi perspective, was published in Third World Quarterly in 2024.
