XJTU is selected to host the 10th China Postgraduate Public Administration Case Competition and the 23rd China Postgraduate Mathematical Contest in Modeling.

The 2026 China Postgraduate Innovation & Practice Competitions were recently launched in Hangzhou, East China's Zhejiang province. During the launch ceremony, the "2025 Annual Report on China Postgraduate Innovation & Practice Competitions" and the annual contribution leaderboards were released.

Looking ahead to 2026, XJTU will host two major national events: the 10th China Postgraduate Public Administration Case Competition and the 23rd China Postgraduate Mathematical Contest in Modeling.

Relying on the strong academic resources and top-notch facilities at iHarbour, XJTU is committed to providing quality services and logistical support. Special preparations for the 10th China Postgraduate Public Administration Case Competition are already underway.

Over a decade of development, the competitions have evolved into a premier platform for cultivating an innovative spirit among postgraduate students. It helps higher education institutions elevate graduate training quality, foster a culture of research innovation, and drive educational reforms in graduate innovation and entrepreneurship.
