Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU; 上海交通大学) is a public university located in Shanghai, China. The university is affiliated with the Ministry of Education of China. It is part of Project 211, Project 985, and the Double First Class University Plan.[6]

History

The earliest predecessor of the school was founded in 1896 and was originally named Nanyang Public School (南洋公学). The school was renamed Nanyang University Hall (南洋大学堂) in 1911, National Chiao Tung University (国立交通大学) in 1929, and Chiao Tung University (交通大学) in 1949.[7]

In 1957, the school moved westward and the Jiaotong University was divided into the Shanghai part and the Xi'an part. In 1959, the Shanghai part of Jiaotong University adopted the name "Shanghai Jiaotong University". In 1999, the then Shanghai Agricultural College (上海农学院) was merged into the school.[7]

In 2005, the former Shanghai Jiao Tong University and the former Shanghai Second Medical University (上海第二医科大学) merged to establish the new Shanghai Jiao Tong University.[7][8]
