Shanghai Jiao Tong University Review

Shanghai Jiaotong University is the best university in Shanghai in my heart. After all, the four years in youth are spent here. This year's school celebration, come to see the campus that has been separated for ten years, look at all familiar but also strange scenes, the past is vivid...

Seeing so many white-haired old alumni, they should be the same age in the Republic. They have experienced the epidemic and the ups and downs of life. When the spring blossoms, they gather to remember their youth. How beautiful!

Shanghai Jiaotong University is a national key university directly under the Ministry of Education and built with Shanghai, and has a history of 126 years. In 1896, Sheng Xuanhuai, a famous industrialist and educator in modern China, adhered to the belief that "self-strengthening first in the storage of talent, and the storage of talent must first start learning", and founded the predecessor of Jiaotong University in Shanghai, Nanyang Public School, which is one of the earliest modern universities in China. In 1985, the Minhang campus began construction, after more than 30 years, has been basically built into a modern university campus with perfect facilities and beautiful environment, and completed the transfer of the center of gravity to the Minhang campus.

At the end of the nineteenth century, the war of Jiawu was defeated and the national distress was in danger. Sheng Xuanhuai, a famous industrialist and educator in modern China, and a group of people with knowledge, adhered to the belief that "self-strengthening first in the storage of talents, and the storage of talents must first start learning", founded the predecessor of Jiaotong University in Shanghai in 1896, Nanyang Public School. At the beginning of the establishment of the school, the school adheres to the purpose of "seeking practical learning, pragmatic industry", to train "first class talents" as the educational goal, diligent and enterprising, and has become a famous college in China in the 1920s and 1930s, known as "Eastern MIT". During the period of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the vast number of teachers and students have been difficult, transferred to the concession, moved to Chongqing, and insisted on running schools. Many students have put pens from the Shanghai, bathing in blood and sand. On the eve of liberation, the vast number of teachers and students have actively participated in the democratic revolution, and the school is known as the "bulwark of democracy".

The university is not the university, but the precipitation of masters and history. It is best to go to the Shanghai Jiaotong University Museum in the old library. It records the glorious history and outstanding achievements of Shanghai University in more than 100 years in pictures and objects.
