On May 19, 2025, Wang Weiyi, Secretary of the Party Committee of the School of Marine Science and Engineering of Shanghai Maritime University, and Feng Daolun, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Dean of the School of Marine Science and Engineering of Shanghai Maritime University, went to the alumni enterprise Huaxi (Shanghai) Industrial Co., Ltd. to carry out a special investigation on school-enterprise cooperation.
Alumnus Zhang Hui gave a comprehensive introduction to the strategic layout of the company's communication foundation and Internet of Things expansion to the teachers of his alma mater, focusing on the company's breakthroughs in the integrated wiring of weak current systems and intelligent network integration. During the discussion and exchange, Zhang Hui affectionately recalled the years of study, ten years of business waves, and always regarded his alma mater as a spiritual beacon, and he especially mentioned that he has always paid attention to the development of the college since his establishment, and is willing to give back to his alma mater through various forms to jointly contribute wisdom and strength to the development of the college.
Secretary Wang Weiyi spoke highly of Huaxi's achievements in the industry. He said that the college has always been guided by serving the national strategy and industry needs, and the purpose of this survey is to lead the cohesion and development through party building, give full play to the resource advantages of alumni enterprises, and jointly explore a new model of school-enterprise collaboration and combination of education and application. He proposed that in the future, the school-enterprise party branch can be paired and jointly built to jointly carry out theme party day activities to promote the transformation of party discipline learning and education achievements into practical actions to serve the society.
From the perspective of discipline construction, Dean Feng Daolun pointed out that the development of port and shipping professional groups needs to be closely connected with the cutting-edge technology of the industry. He suggested that the two sides jointly build a dual-teacher practical teaching base, promote enterprise engineers to enter the classroom, and college teachers to participate in enterprise technical research, so as to realize the seamless connection between talent training and industrial needs. At the same time, he proposed to rely on the engineering case database of Huaxi Industry to jointly develop a course integrating industry and education to help students improve their ability to practice and innovate.
Deputy Secretary Dong Chaoqun put forward the direction of cooperation between student employment and party building. He emphasized that the college will rely on the resources of alumni enterprises to expand the channel of visiting enterprises and expanding jobs and provide high-quality internship and employment positions for graduates.
In the future, the college will continue to promote the special action of visiting enterprises to expand their posts, and write a new chapter in the integration of industry and education in the new era through measures such as establishing a school-enterprise cooperation platform and jointly building a graduate employment reservoir.
It is reported that since 2015, the alumni company has donated a total of 1.2 million yuan to its alma mater to set up the Huaxi Scholarship, subsidizing more than 100 students with excellent character and learning.
