Fu Erjiang used to call Melbourne home. After earning his Ph.D. in GPS meteorology from RMIT University in the Australian metropolis in 2011, Fu began his career in the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, also located in city. More importantly, Melbourne is well-known as an education hub and one of the world’s most livable cities.
Despite the many draws of Melbourne, Fu considered the move to Nanjing, capital of Jiangsu Province in east China, in 2020 to be a positive decision. “It (Nanjing) has a long history, is livable and, much like Melbourne, is a city of education,” he explained.
Fu is now director of Nanjing Overseas
