“After a decade of hard work, our disciples are now
all around the world.” In this harvest season, the 10th
Anniversary of the School of Management and Engineering of
Nanjing University will be celebrated. 10 years ago, the
famous Management Expert Prof. Sheng Zhaohan, who
established our School, lead us, starting from scratch,
hard, perseveringly and steady to work. Today, our school
already has Primary Discipline Doctoral Programs and
Post-doctoral Research Programs for Management Science and
Engineering, Information Engineering Doctoral Programs,
Primary Disciplines Master’s Programs for Management Science
and Engineering, Control and System Engineering, Optical
Engineering, as well as non-academic Master’s programs for
Project Management, Industrial Engineering, Control
Engineering and Optical Engineering. There are 4 Bachelor
Degrees for Automation, Industrial Engineering, Financial
Engineering and Information Engineering. Now we have 2000
students in total at our school, including undergraduate,
graduate (including non-academic) and doctoral candidate.
In these years, under the lead of Prof. Sheng, we hold onto
the school motto “the way of study needs a good faith, only
in this way, we can service well for the most people”, and
perseveringly establish an interdisciplinary research and
education team that inosculate Arts, science, engineering
and management. The quantity of teachers rose from 5 to 60.
“Being the highest and lowest” is our goal and pursuance.
“Being highest” means we will do our best to be in the same
level with the first-class teams of China and abroad. Now we
have already published hundreds of papers in the first-class
core journals of China and abroad, directed and participated
in the 6 programs of “973”,”863” and the national key
programs (projects and sub items), taken on the Research
Projects supported by the State Key Program of National
Natural Science of China in four consecutive years. We
undertook 56 projects supported by the state, and 63
projects supported by Jiangsu Province. Each teacher got 2.5
projects. We also got the first prize of advanced technology
Award supported by the Ministry of Education, the first
prize of Philosophy and Social Sciences award supported by
Jiangsu Province, first prize of defense technology award
supported by state and so on. “Being lowest” means we will
do our best to service the development of society. In these
10 years, our school has already trained a lot of high-level
talents, and also proactively impels the scientific and
technical payoffs to transfer to the actual productivity.
Through the corporation between Suzhou-Nantong Bridge, Hong
Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge, stock supervisory committee,
Ministry of Railways, ICBC, Shanghai Stock Exchange, Yangzi
Petrochemical company Ltd., Sinopec Qilu Company Ltd.,
Jiangsu Guoxin Investment group limited, China Mobile
Jiangsu, HP, Agilent Technologies, Siemens, Rockwell
Automation and such major enterprises, we carry out the
scientific research, develop the technology, and obtain
good’ economy and social benefit.
In these 10 years, every achievement of our school was only
possible due to the great support of the university and each
department, due to the enthusiastic help of the academia
colleagues from China and abroad, and due to the caring and
support of the government and the whole society. We are very
aware that the 10 years is only a beginning for the
development of our school. To achieve and realize our
“Highest and Lowest”, we need to be geared to international
standards in the science research and the mode of education,
need to open our mind in talents import and the construction
of academic echelon, and also need to pay more attention to
the further reform of school structure and emphasizing the
school culture construction.
With the important commission, we eagerly expect the support
of colleagues from China and abroad, expect the help of
every friend who is keen to get to know our school. “Plant
lots of green trees to enjoy the cool, go to the high tower
to look far”. We are looking forward to sharing the success
and happiness of our school with you.
