“Faith, Righteousness, Diligence, Love, Thinking, Learning, Aspiration, and Ambition”
- This is our motto, drawn from our cultural genes.
Eight words, combining both past and present with both practice and theory, nurture the human spirit of this centenarian university.
University Anthem
The Huangpu River, flows strongly,
surging onward to the Eastern Sea.
And beside it, stands our great USST.
Having created centennial history,
inheriting the glory of her past,
our students spread beyond the ocean wide.
Lifting up to tomorrow’s sun,
with the dream of reviving a nation’s pride.
The success of our nation rests on our shoulders,
as onward we march to a new day.
With honesty, love, vision and reflection,
we fan the flames of learners on their way.
Cultivate the pillars of our nation.
Onward we march to a new day.
With honesty, love, vision and reflection,
the honor of our motherland, within our hearts, will stay
The Huangpu River flows strongly,
and surges on to the Eastern Sea,
and beside it, stands our great USST,
looking toward another glorious century.
While diversity widens the mind’s eye,
Science and Technology gives the wings to fly.
So to build a name of great renown,
Let us strive together hand in hand,
Strive on, strive on, strive on
