On its journey towards becoming a high-level, application-oriented, and comprehensive university, the School of Public Affairs of Zhejiang Shuren University has entered a vibrant new stage of development.

Leveraging the first-class discipline in Public Administration and integrating diverse resources of Zhejiang Province, the School has established a comprehensive academic and professional system. We offer a Master of Public Administration (MPA) program and five distinctive undergraduate programs, several of which rank among the best provincially and nationally. This forms a solid foundation for the School’s advancement.

The School adheres to a dual strategy of talent-driven development and academic excellence. We have assembled a distinguished faculty comprising outstanding scholars and doctors, including many winners of national and provincial, and ministerial-level talent awards. This provides robust intellectual support for both teaching and research. Furthermore, based on professional fields, we actively engage in interdisciplinary cooperation research, particularly at the intersection of the “New Liberal Arts” and “New Medical Sciences”, to serve major strategic demands of the country.

In talent cultivation, ‌driven by‌ educational reform initiatives, we implement industry-education integration to cultivate high-caliber talents capable of meeting social development demands. ‌Externally, we actively pursue‌ cooperative exchanges, establishing good partnerships with universities and research institutions across multiple countries and regions, broadening the international perspectives of both faculty and students.

The “Fifteenth Five-Year Plan” period represents a significant phase for the university’s advancement and a critical stage for the School to achieve new breakthrough. ‌Guided by‌ a sense of historical responsibility, courage to reform, and entrepreneurial spirit, we must define new developmental objectives while highlighting our distinctive educational strengths. ‌Collective commitment from all faculty and students is imperative‌ to advance under the guidance of Party building, jointly drawing a beautiful blueprint for the development of the School.

We are confident that ‌through the joint efforts of all‌, the School of Public Affairs of Zhejiang Shuren University will emerge as a distinctive model school, cultivating more excellent public management professionals for society.
