On Oct. 29, the signing ceremony for the establishment of USC-SJTU Institute of Cultural and Creative Industry was held in Shanghai Jiao Tong University. DOBE Board Chairman Jia Bo was invited to be Master Industrial Supervisor by USC-SJTU Institute of Cultural and Creative Industry.
USC-SJTU Institute of Cultural and Creative Industry initiated the “trinity” supervisor group mechanism. The supervisor group is made up of academic supervisors, industrial supervisors and foreign supervisors to provide students with all-round instructions. The institute aims to build a world first-rate teaching faculty that integrates research, curriculum and practice into one. Besides hiring famous professors of SJTU and introducing teachers of USC as academic supervisors, the Institute also invited leading figures in cultural and creative industry and international academic masters to form the industrial supervisor team and foreign supervisor team. DOBE Group’s Board Chairman Jia Bo was invited to be a supervisor.
Industrial supervisors will instruct students in their projects with the supervisor group’s members and provide chances of practice in enterprises’ actual operation projects based on their enterprise resources, to let students take part in the whole process of finishing a project during their study. Besides, industrial supervisors will help students to learn the general picture and latest trends of cultural and creative industries through personal coaching, industrial lectures, company visits and exchanges. Meanwhile, industrial supervisors will communicate with the institute’s management team and professor team regularly, pass industrial information, exchange ideas on the institute’s training program making, the combination of teaching management and industry, and the institute’s strategic development, to make sure the institute keeps in close contact and cooperation with the industry.
DOBE has been devoted to serving cultural, creative and sci-tech industries. It has set up an Institute of Cultural and Creative Industry which focuses on the research of major theoretical and practical problems in cultural and creative fields to promote industry-university-research integration. Students of USC-SJTU Institute of Cultural and Creative Industry not only can learn more about the industry, but also can feel the charm of organically combining culture with creation.
