description: 'Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU), founded in 1896 and located in Shanghai, China (Mainland), is one of China''s
  top research universities and is ranked #56 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. SJTU operates an official developer
  platform (developer.sjtu.edu.cn) that exposes internal data resources and infrastructure to authorized developers. Its public-facing
  programmable footprint centers on the jAccount single sign-on system (OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect) and a GraphQL-based data
  resources platform covering account, faculty, undergraduate teaching, and academic paper data. Access to the data APIs is
  gated behind an application and approval process; the SSO/OIDC integration is documented publicly.'
