China Institute in America advances a deeper understanding of China through programs in education, culture, art, and business. China Institute in America is the go-to resource on China—from ancient art to today’s business landscape and its rapidly shifting culture. Our programs, school, and gallery exhibitions bring to life the depth, complexity and dynamism of China.

Founded in 1926 by Chinese reformers Hu Shi (胡適) and Kuo Pingwen (郭秉文) and American educators John Dewey and Paul Monroe, China Institute in America is the oldest bicultural, non-profit organization in America to focus exclusively on China.

Chartered by the Board of Regents of the University of the State of New York in 1944 as a school of continuing education, our language and cultural school is the oldest educational center of its kind in the United States. (chinainstitute.org)

Shanghai Jiao Tong University places a strong emphasis on liberal arts education, a commitment dating back to 1908 with the establishment of the Department of Humanities. At its inception, Professor Tang Wenzhi, then university president, pioneered the teaching of special tones in reading Chinese poetry—known as the Tang Tones—an invaluable intellectual legacy. The department has been enriched by the contributions of esteemed professors such as Gu Hongming, Cai Yuanpei, Zhang Yuanji, Fu Lei, Li Shutong, Huang Yanpei, and Shao Lizi, who have either studied or taught within its halls.

Over the years, the university underwent significant restructuring and reform. In 1985, the Department of Social Sciences and Engineering, along with the Department of Literature and Art, were established, forming the foundation of the School of Humanities and Social Sciences in 1997.

The evolutionary journey continued in 2003 when the School of Humanities emerged as a distinct entity. Recognizing the global importance of a liberal arts education, the School of Humanities merged with the School of International Education in 2015, culminating in the creation of the new School of Humanities with a specific focus on advancing the internationalization of liberal arts education.

Further milestones unfolded in 2019 as the Institute of Arts and Humanities joined forces with the School of Humanities, marking a transformative stage in its development. This strategic collaboration represents the school’s commitment to innovation and its dedication to shaping the future of liberal arts education at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. (sjtu.edu.cn)
