Overview

This year's classes might be taught online due to COVID-19.

Students of the Political Science program at Shanghai Jiao Tong University develop the ability to analyze China’s domestic and foreign politics, economy, and society from both comparative and international theoretical and policy perspectives.

They not only acquire tremendous conceptual and factual knowledge, but also develop the functional skills needed to pursue China-related careers in business, government, and non-governmental organizations. This program only accepts full-time students.

The school

Guided by the motto of “Wisdom, Integrity, Diligence, and Harmony”, the School of International and Public Affair (SIPA) has been committed to student training, academic research, international cooperation and coordinated development.

With public administration and political science as its preponderant disciplines, SIPA has made great headway towards internationalizing its programs.

The school’s core competitiveness and social influence are constantly improving, and we are now moving steadily towards a world-class school with Chinese characteristics.
