Student Development
Supporting scholarships is one of the most powerful and meaningful ways that benefactors can help JI to make a difference of development in lives of countless best students in China.
Ways of Support:
1. Named Scholarship Fund
Donors can choose to name an expendable scholarship or endowed scholarship and make a gift at the appropriate level:
- Expendable Scholarship requires a minimum gift of 50K RMB per year with three consecutive years of agreement.
- Endowed Scholarship requires a minimum gift of 1 million RMB. To keep the endowment existing in perpetuity, a portion of the income will be utilized annually to provide scholarship awards to selected students.
The named scholarships are managed and implemented by JI Scholarship Committee to ensure the reasonable usage. The endowments are invested and supervised by Shanghai Jiao Tong University Education Development Foundation (SJTUEDF) to reserve the value and keep the stability of support.
2. Student Development Scholarship Fund
Student Development Scholarship is created with the intent that all of the funds donated to the JI Development Fund will be distributed over the course of time to support the student development in social practice and public service etc. Student Development Scholarship is a good option for donors to start with very smaller initial gifts (200RMB and above) and make additional gifts at any time.
UM-SJTU Joint Institute Development Fund (JIDF) is a college-level development fund affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University Education Development Foundation. JIDF consists of special funds and annual funds. Special funds are restricted funds designated for specific purposes, while annual funds are unrestricted funds, including Student Development Scholarship Fund, Sam & Daisy Wu Scholarship Fund, Faculty Excellence Fund, Alumni Fund, Parents Fund, Innovation and Entrepreneurship Fund, etc. JIDF is in the process of accepting gifts from friends, alumni, parents, corporates and non-profit organizations.
