He became the president of [[Tongji University]] in 2002, serving there until 2007.
==Biography==
Wan graduated from [[Northeast Forestry University]]. In 1979, he did his [[postgraduate]] study on experimental [[mechanics]] in Structural Theories Research Institute of [[Tongji University]] and received his [[master degree]] in 1981.


In 2007, he was appointed the minister of science and technology. He also became the chairman of the China Zhi Gong Party later that year, and was appointed a vice chairman of the [[Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference]] in 2008.

== Early life and education ==
In 1991, Dr. Wan began to work in German [[Audi]] Corporation, in charge of computer virtualization of [[automobile]] in the [[R&D]] Department. Soon he originated a distinctive auto-developing system for the company. In 1996, he was promoted to technical manager in production and technology division, and took charge of informational manufacturing technology as well as management. His leadership and contribution in many technological innovations facilitated the production of [[Audi A4]], car of a new generation, thus winning for the company huge economic profits. In 1994 and 1995, he was consecutively invited as guest [[professor]] and [[doctoral supervisor]] at [[Clausthal University of Technology]] and of [[Tongji University]]. Under his instruction, his German doctoral candidates successfully carried out a researching project on [[fuel cell]] and they filled the blank of this field then and there.

In the year of 2000, Dr. Wan made a strategic proposal (“''Regarding Development of Automobile New Clean Energy as the Starting Line for Leap- Forward of China’s Automobile Industry'' ”) to the [[State Council of China]] to develop a new type of automobile propelled by new clean fuel, with a view to ushering Chinese [[auto industry]] onto a new stage.
