## SJTU Leadership Visits Japan for Alumni Engagement

November 07, 2024
Page views: 2328

From October 29 to November 2, 2024, Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) President Kuiling Ding led a delegation on an official visit to Japan. On the morning of November 2, the delegation met with Xiaosong Jiang, President of the SJTU Alumni Association in Japan (AAJ), along with the new council members and alumni representatives. Nearly 20 alumni and staff from the SJTU Alumni Association Office and the Office of International Cooperation and Exchange attended the meeting.

Xiaosong Jiang kicked off the gathering with a warm welcome on behalf of the Japan Alumni Association. Jun Wu followed up with an update on how the association has been working to bring alumni together in Japan, support the university’s outreach, and strengthen ties between China and Japan. He also thanked everyone for sticking with the association and expressed his appreciation for the university’s ongoing support.

Kuiling Ding then greeted the group and praised the Japan alumni for their dedication. He shared some highlights of SJTU’s latest progress, including its new all-in-one system that links admissions, student life, career support, and alumni connections. The goal, he said, is to build school spirit and get alumni more involved in helping future graduates succeed. He reassured everyone that the university is always thinking of its alumni and looks forward to staying connected. He also extended a heartfelt invitation for everyone to come back to campus in 2026 for SJTU’s 130th birthday celebration.

Xiyao Gu, Director of the Alumni Association Office, announced the new council appointments for the Japan Alumni Association: Xiaosong Jiang (President), Jun Wu (Executive President), Zongtao Ge (Vice President), Yihua Chen (Secretary-General), and Zhirong Shen (Supervisor). President Kuiling Ding presented the appointment certificates to the members of the new council and unveiled the plaque of the Shanghai Jiao Tong University Alumni Center in Japan.

While in Japan, staff from the Alumni Association Office caught up one-on-one with alumni to hear how their careers were going, passing along warm wishes from the university. The group also stopped by the University of Tokyo, where they visited alumnus Lei Ma and got a tour of his lab. Lastly, they paid a visit to Justware, a company founded by Jun Wu, and visited Luyong Fu at LAOX Group.

【About the SJTU Alumni Association in Japan】

Founded in 1998, the SJTU Japan Alumni Association has long worked to unite alumni in Japan and support exchange and collaboration between SJTU and the broader Japanese community. The association hosts events such as New Year gatherings and roundtables to promote alumni networking and personal growth. At the same time, it serves as a home for alumni in Japan and plays a vital role in advancing SJTU’s global presence and promoting Sino-Japanese relations. The current leadership includes President Xiaosong Jiang, Executive President Jun Wu, and Secretary-General Yihua Chen. The association is in contact with more than 500 alumni across Japan.
