About East China Jiaotong University
According to Wikipedia, East China Jiaotong University is a university in Nanchang, Jiangxi province, China. It was formerly known as Shanghai Railway Institute, which was moved from Shanghai to Nanchang in 1971. ECJTU is one of the renowned multi-disciplinary and comprehensive universities in China, focuses on railway-related disciplines, and features transportation engineering. It was established in 1971, when the State Council approved the combining of both the College of Locomotive and Rolling Stock in Shanghai and the Jiaotong University and College of Railway Engineering in Tongji University to establish Shanghai Railway Institute, which was later renamed East China Jiaotong University and transferred to Jiangxi Province. Since 1978, ECJTU and Shanghai Railway Institute ran independently as two universities, and then was affiliated to the Railway Ministry of China. In 2000, the university was reformed to be "co-sponsored by both central and provincial governments, but mainly under the administration of the latter". Through many years' unremitting efforts, under priority construction in Jiangxi Province, ECJTU has grown into a provincially key university and one nationally accredited institution offering doctoral degree programs.
