Preface
Welcome to the Voice of USST in/for June! During the critical period of the normalized epidemic prevention and control, USST planned and organized the student graduation ceremony, promising all 2020 graduates a perfect commencement. At the ceremony, president Ding Xiaodong addressed a graduation speech titled "Forge ahead in the Post-epidemic Era" to encourage graduates to be useful talents in the post-epidemic era. After the cooperation agreements were signed between USST and Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China, Ltd. (COMAC) and some other enterprises, USST signed another strategic cooperation agreement with Bright Food (Group) Cp., Ltd to continue promoting in-depth cooperation between universities and enterprises in the field of scientific and technological research, discipline construction, talents training, etc. Our university continues to strengthen the introduction of talents, gather the strength of young teachers, and hold the second Hujiang Young Scholars International Forum on Optical Engineering at the “Cloud” platform, creating a new mode of online academic exchanges.
USST has made abundant and gratifying achievements in discipline construction, scientific research, talents cultivation and cooperation & exchange. USST continues to deepen medical-engineering interdisciplinary research and cooperation, promote the school's discipline development and talents training, and jointly establishes the Innovation and Transfer Platform for Medical Device with the three other units in Shanghai to form a "hospital-university-research-enterprise-hospital" closed loop. After signing the cooperation agreement with Yangpu District and Qingpu District, USST continues to deepen the cooperation between universities and other districts and signed a cooperation agreement with Huangpu District People's Government to jointly build Chuneng Middle School (to be determined) affiliated to the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology aiming to establish a high school with new engineering characteristics. Professor Zang Xiaofei, an expert on terahertz field from the School of Optical-electrical and Computer Engineering, Professor Zhao Bin from the School of Materials Science focusing on electro-catalytic materials, and an Associate Professor Rao Pingping from the School of Environmental Engineering specializing in the civil engineering in southern Xinjiang have all made breakthroughs in scientific research. USST carries out the ideas of educating students in research and practice, so students from School of Optical-electrical and Computer Engineering, School of Materials Science and College of Science have successfully published their high-level papers in top journals.
In May, we introduced Academician Gu Min who made a series of breakthroughs in the field of nano-photonics. This month's cover figure was Professor Liu Ping, who won the first prize of the Shanghai Science and Technology Progress Award for the project "Key Technology and Industrialization of High-performance Copper Alloy Contact Lines for High-speed Railways". After 18 years of cooperation in production, education and research, the "electrical functional materials" team led by Professor Liu has developed the micro-alloy synergistic strengthening technology, which works out the technical problems of high conductivity and high strength of copper alloy contact wire, as well as the technical problems of collaborative optimization with high wear resistance, anti-softening and other properties. Three series of high performance copper alloy contact wire have been developed, which breaks the monopoly of foreign countries in the key technologies of high-speed railway contact lines and labels high-speed railway contact lines "made in China".
"The Voices from Liu Hongying, MA candidate from Foreign Language Institution of USST, won the 2019 National Scholarship, special award and outstanding winner for National English Competition for College Students."

President Ding: Forge ahead in the Post-epidemic Era at Students Commencement
On June 19th, the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology Commencement and Degree Conferral 2020 was held in the auditorium on the Jungong Rd. Campus. On the premise of epidemic prevention and control, was the simultaneous mode of the main venue and sub-venue. Also, cloud-live-streaming was adopted for the ceremony. The main venue was set in the auditorium while the sub-venue was set in other venues at other schools and colleges. Graduates who have not returned to school could watch the ceremonial scene on the cloud platform.
Ding Xiaodong, President of USST, addressed a speech entitled “Forge Ahead in the Post-epidemic Era”. He said, in the hard times of fighting against the epidemic, our country and people have won a victory in just a few short months with our national spirits of resilience. He encouraged graduates to work hard to address challenges, refuel themselves and strive to achieve their dreams when faced with difficulties in the future. Opportunities always come to those who are prepared and only the strivers who are always ready to seize opportunities can make breakthroughs in the process of change. The wave of digitalization and intellectualization is surging forward in line with the new technological revolution. Graduates need to seek new occupations, adapt to new demands, learn from books and practices and develop new thinking and skills to be useful workers in this post-epidemic era.
We hope all of you will realize your dreams with the blessing of USST, the guidance of your teachers and the hopes of your classmates, and strive for a wonderful life. USST by the Huangpu River will always be your solid support and your warm home. We welcome you back home often!
