Shanghai University of Sport

Shanghai University of Sport (上海体育学院) is a public university in Yangpu District, Shanghai, China.[1]

SUS,the very first university of its kind in People's Republic of China, was established in November 1952 by the merger of departments of Physical Education from East China Normal University, Nanjing University and Ginling College. Mr. Wu Yunrui, first President of SUS, devoted himself to the advanced values and notions of physical education.

SUS was formerly under the direct governance of the General Administration of Sport of China and began to be jointly constructed and managed in 2001 by the General Administration of Sport of China and Shanghai Municipal Government.

Over sixty years of construction and development, SUS has grown into a multi-disciplined university with six categories of education, management, science, literature, medicine and arts featured with sport science. SUS has established a complete educational system covering bachelor, master and doctoral programs and set up the mobile station for post-doctoral research in sport science.
