Academics · Three universities

Department-level access — not a campus tour.

Roamray is built around three of China's most cited universities. Each gives the cohort three faculty-hosted days — classroom, field site and enterprise visit — and concludes with an official certificate from the department. A student earns three: from Fudan, Tongji and Shanghai Jiao Tong. No tour buses outside a gate.

Three official certificates

An official certificate from Fudan, Tongji and Shanghai Jiao Tong.

Each university's three-day chapter concludes with an official certificate issued by the host department — not a private certificate of attendance. Complete the fortnight and a student carries home three: Fudan, Tongji and Shanghai Jiao Tong.

Chapter focus

Hands on the robot. Eyes on the basin.

Artificial Intelligence · Naval Architecture · Robotics

Three days at Shanghai Jiao Tong, across three poles — Pudong, Minhang and Xuhui: an AI seminar and robotics workshop with a visit to Pudong's Zhangjiang AI Island; a day at the State Key Laboratory's marine engineering test centre — the deep-water and towing basins (naval architecture and ocean engineering, China's number one); and a game-design seminar with visits to miHoYo's headquarters, MoSpace, SenseTime and Tencent. Students pair 1:1 with a host researcher and lunch with graduate researchers. The chapter closes with an official SJTU certificate.

Chapter focus

Read the street. Draw the city.

Architecture · Urbanism · Design

Three days at Tongji: an architecture studio crit, a faculty-led seminar on city and architecture, a walking studio through the former French Concession with a design site visit, and a full automotive day at the Jiading campus — the Shanghai full-car wind tunnel, the Tongji FSAE team, and a new-energy automaker in Anting. Tile and street, architecture and the automobile — read the city, then see how it builds. The chapter closes with an official Tongji certificate.
