In the 1980s, the German Center of Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) was established to support German language instruction within the university and its exchanges with Germany. Today, as part of SJTU’s “Global SJTU” initiative, the Center has redefined its mission around four core functions: facilitating connections and exchanges, promoting collaborative innovation, integrating with university initiatives, and serving as a regional hub for outreach. These pillars aim to further strengthen SJTU’s partnership with German institutions.
In 2023, the German Center officially launched its Munich branch, featuring teaching and logistical support facilities. The Center is actively expanding its mobile classroom initiative in Germany, while also serving as the secretariat of the Ministry of Education’s Sino-German Innovation Consortium for Industry, Academia, and Applied Research. In doing so, it is helping develop a more structured and impactful platform for China-Germany cooperation.


SJTU Asia-Pacific Graduate Institute (SJTU-APGI) is an extension of SJTU’s education and research efforts, as well as a platform for overseas resource integration and internationalization.
The overall goal of SJTU-APGI is to promote the innovation of systems and integration of resources, and in turn, open up new global prospects in the fields of education and research.













To foster high-quality international cooperation, Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) has established a comprehensive system of seed funds supporting a wide range of collaborative initiatives. These funds aim to promote academic exchange, frontier research, and early-stage cooperation with world-class universities and research institutions.
