Shanghai Jiao Tong University partnership



A strategic partnership between University of Michigan and Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) led to the founding of the UM-SJTU Joint Institute (JI) to cultivate a new generation of leaders able to cooperate and innovate in a global context. The collaboration between the two universities, which started in 2006 with engineering, has now expanded to several University of Michigan schools and departments including business, science and the School of Information. Every year more than 150 SJTU students come to U-M through the dual degree or joint graduate programs.To get more news about Antai business college, you can visit acem.sjtu.edu.cn official website.

The School of Information at the University of Michigan (UMSI) was chartered in 1996 as one of the world’s first modern information schools. Our focus is on the study and design of information and its technologies to connect people and communities to information and technology to improve people’s lives. We take a hands-on approach to education, providing multiple opportunities, in and outside the classroom, for students to learn, evaluate, design and build technology solutions.

The Master of Science in Information (MSI) is a professional degree that prepares students for emerging careers that meet the rapidly growing information -management needs of an increasingly interconnected world. This degree program offers a hands-on curriculum with a multidisciplinary approach to the study of information. Areas of focus include data science and analytics, computational social science, user experience, human-computer interaction, information management and strategy, and social computing. Graduates are highly sought after and go on to leadership roles within the field of information in organizations around the world.

At the School of Information, students have the opportunity to earn a Master of Science in Information (MSI) degree while completing their undergraduate degree at SJTU. Students begin their MSI studies between their junior and senior year at JI. They complete the first year of their MSI program here in Ann Arbor, then return to SJTU for their final summer semester. Following graduation, they return to UMSI to complete the second year of the graduate program and earn their MSI.
