In September 2026, Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU) launched a strategic disciplinary restructuring amid the digital and AI revolution in education, merging the School of Science (established September 2020) and Wisdom Lake Academy of Pharmacy (founded November 2020, a flagship project of XJTLU’s 3.0 Industry Innovation Ecosystem) to establish the Academy of Life and Natural Sciences (AoLNS). AoLNS acts as the core flagship carrier driving XJTLU’s transition from the 3.0 Industry Innovation Ecosystem to the 4.0 Learning-Innovation Social Ecosystem.
