On 31 May 2022 SJTU Asia-Pacific Graduate Institute (SJTU-APGI) visited the Nanyang Technological University (NTU). The visit was a monumental one as it signifies a new phase of collaboration between the two institutes since COVID struck in 2019.

Already collaborating on many fronts, both NTU and SJTU have seen growth and memorable exchanges for years. This time, APGI’s mission is to further break new grounds and find new modes of collaboration with NTU.

APGI Vice Dean Meng Jia and Assistant Director of Southeast Asia Center Zhou Jindao visited Deputy Director Wang Hang of Nanyang Center for Public Administration. The group had a long and fruitful discussion on current educational landscape and trends of China and Southeast Asia (SEA). Both parties also laid down groundwork for further collaborations such as joint learning programs.

APGI then met Deputy Director Desmond Woo, Senior Assistant Manager Lucy Zhou and Senior Executive Soh Ting of NTU’s Career Attachment Office. The two entities had a cordial and meaningful discussion, with plans to launch student research internships as well as the potential for future collaborations.
