It's a China People's Bank/Shanghai City Government project. Has campuses in Puxi near Fudan/Tongji, and in Pudong out in the boonies (Jinqiao Export Processing Zone?).

http://translate.google.com/translate?prev=hp&hl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fbai ke.baidu.com%2Fview%2F28963.htm&sl=zh-CN&tl=en

Find out which campus it would be on. If in Puxi, live in Hongkou and commute. If in Pudong, live in Jinqiao and commute.

Another totally useless 'university'. My goodness, when will this country ever reform their education system?!. I get these job applicants from 'famous chinese universities' all the time . Even when their degrees are not fake, they are utterly useless. Living in a bubble world with a mindset of a 7 year old, and absolutely no touch with reality.

Yes I agree. People tend to put far too much emphasis on degrees in China. When I interview local candidates, I really don't care where they got their degree from - I can train them in the job. I cannot however train them in being human beings with social skills beyond eating and drinking with their families, and watching basketball. I usually ask them about travel they have done within China, projects they have undertaken by themselves, hobbies or sports they have excelled or had a go at, charity work, how they have helped others, how others look up to them and the hardest of all for them - "tell me about one of your failures"....... Vast majority are stuck for answers on these. Usually I get answers like "I was the top chemistry student at middle school" or a spotty oik saying "I was the Shanghai Number 1 mathematics student" to which I would respond "Am I bovvered?"
