June 27, 2025 | Chengdu—Alumni representatives from Information Management & Information System cohort of 2001 returned to Southwest Jiaotong University’s School of Economics and Management (SEM) to celebrate their 20th graduation anniversary by making a significant new contribution to the “Jingying Scholarship” fund.
Ms. JIANG Jia, Secretary of the Party Committee of the School of Economics and Management, and Professor HAN Ke, Dean of the School, extended a warm welcome to the alumni returning to the school and expressed sincere gratitude for their generous donation. Ms. YU Xiaoying, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee, briefed the alumni on the distribution of scholarship. Mr. YAN Libin, Deputy Division Organizer of SEM, shared the historical background of the scholarship's establishment. The “Jingying Scholarship” was originally established by the cohort in June 2015 to reward undergraduates students with excellent character and academic performance. The fund is dedicated to enhancing the quality of education and fostering student excellence. In June 2025, on their 20th graduation anniversary, the alumni made a second donation to the scholarship.
“You have transitioned from students to leaders in your fields, and yet you have never forgotten your connection to your alma mater,” said JIANG. “This scholarship is not only a reflection of your gratitude but also a powerful source of inspiration for our current students. We are committed to using this fund to help many more of them achieve their full potential.”
The event featured a formal signing of the donation agreement by JIANG and alumni representative LIU Kun, after which the school presented the alumni with certificates of appreciation.
Speaking on behalf of his classmates, LIU expressed their collective gratitude to SEM and its faculty. He reiterated their hope that the scholarship would inspire current students to strive for excellence and contribute to the school’s long-term success.
The ceremony underscored SEM’s commitment to strengthening its bonds with alumni, whose support plays a vital role in nurturing future talent and advancing the university’s mission.
