Most Similar Schools Locally
- A good alternative in the same country is SJTU, which likewise covers marine science, food science and transportations; it is larger, enrolling about 40,000 students against roughly 22,000 here, and is also a public institution.
- Shanghai Maritime University sits close to this university on marine science, transportations and optics; it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral, and covers logistics as well.
- Where this university leans on marine science, food science and quality, Shanghai Ocean University does the same, and it covers agriculture and bioinformatics as well, and is slightly smaller, at about 17,000 students against roughly 22,000 here.
- Both schools build their programmes around marine science, food science and transportations, and Wuhan University of Technology is the one to compare first within the country, since it covers logistics and geotechnics as well, and is larger, enrolling about 55,000 students against roughly 22,000 here.
- Anyone who wants a second school in the same country with a similar spread of transportations, quality and optics can consider Harbin Institute of Technology, and it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral, and covers aerospace and nanotechnologies as well.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”, “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.
**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale:
- known locally
- known locally and internationally
- is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
- is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications
***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
