The year of 2022 marks the 70th anniversary of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. On 24 October, we will hold grand ceremonies to celebrate this special year.
Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine (SJTUSM) was formerly known as Shanghai Second Medical College, which came into being through a merger of St. John’s University School of Medicine (1896-1952), Aurora University School of Medicine (1911-1952), and Tongde Medical College (1918-1952) in the nationwide reorganization of universities in 1952 and changed its name to Shanghai Second Medical University in 1985. In July 2005, Shanghai Second Medical University merged with Shanghai Jiao Tong University to establish a new key medical school, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, under the joint jurisdiction of the Ministry of Education (MoE) and the Shanghai municipal government.
It has always been the mission and aspiration of SJTUSM to serve the nation and cure the people. At each critical moment, SJTUSM braved the difficulties in the harms’ way and made its contribution to the society.
On this special year, we hereby invite all alumni and friends to join us, celebrating this grand ceremony together.
