The name of the school is taken from the biography of Shangshu Yu Xia. The sun and the moon are bright, but the sky is full of clouds, and the clouds are gathering. The sun and the moon shine on the earth every day. The original meaning of the word "Fudan" in the two sentences is the pursuit of light, which means running schools independently and rejuvenating China. Intended to strive for self-improvement, it pinned the hope of China intellectuals to run their own schools and educate a strong country at that time.
Fudan University was founded in 1905 and formerly known as Fudan College. It is the first institution of higher learning independently established by China people. The founder was educator Ma, and the first director was Sun Yat-sen. ..
