Reflections from Faculty & Alumni

Guillaume SALHA GALVAN

Tenure-track Associate Professor, SJTU

PhD from École Polytechnique

As a new French faculty member, I have been extremely warmly welcomed into the SPEIT community. By uniting the strengths of SJTU and its prestigious French partner institutions, SPEIT provides an exceptional environment for innovative research. At the institute, I am not only surrounded by brilliant Chinese students and fellow researchers, but also in daily communication with international collaborators. It is a truly stimulating setting for both personal and academic growth.

ZHU Ye

Assistant Professor, Department of Computer Science, Ecole Polytechnique

Dual degree from ENSTA Paris

Alumni, Major in Mechanical Engineering

SPEIT is an important academic starting point in my life. Not only did it provide me with a firm foundation in mathematics and science, it also fostered a cross-cultural vision and independent thinking through the blend of Chinese and French cultures. Benefiting from the institute’s rigorous curriculum and open academic atmosphere, I have had the opportunity to continuously explore in my subsequent academic path, eventually reaching the international stage. I often look back fondly on those pure yet possibility-filled years at SPEIT, which gave me the confidence and courage to face unknown academic challenges.
