After receiving his doctorate&nbsp;at Columbia University in 1920, he returned to Beijing to lecture on mathematical logic, and then went on to create&nbsp;the department of philosophy at Tsinghua University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2017, Tsinghua University decided to institute a Jin Yuelin Visiting Chair to support the activities of its&nbsp;Logic Center that has been in existence since 2014. One key aim is to ensure a permanent international presence in logic, broadly conceived, in Jin Yuelin&#8217;s spirit of collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The tasks of the Jin Yuelin professors are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>to engage in research with colleagues&nbsp; the Logic Research center and beyond,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>to teach undergraduate courses in logic broadly&nbsp;conceived,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>to teach advanced graduate seminars,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>to engage in activities enhancing international collaboration.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Tsinghua University is proud to continue the tradition&nbsp;started by Jin Yuelin now almost a century ago, and this chair is a highly visible sign of this support.&nbsp;The Jin Yuelin Chair will be held by a team of international colleagues for the years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"650\" height=\"400\" src=\"http:\/\/tsinghualogic.net\/JRC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/4e17a051-a70b-464a-9734-a50ee6986dc7.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5750\" srcset=\"http:\/\/tsinghualogic.net\/JRC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/4e17a051-a70b-464a-9734-a50ee6986dc7.jpeg 650w, http:\/\/tsinghualogic.net\/JRC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/4e17a051-a70b-464a-9734-a50ee6986dc7-200x123.jpeg 200w, http:\/\/tsinghualogic.net\/JRC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/4e17a051-a70b-464a-9734-a50ee6986dc7-570x350.jpeg 570w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Jin Yuelin Professors<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>&nbsp;<\/th><th>&nbsp;<\/th><th>&nbsp;<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5687 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/tsinghualogic.net\/JRC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/\u4e0b\u8f7d-167x200.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"167\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/tsinghualogic.net\/JRC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/\u4e0b\u8f7d-167x200.jpeg 167w, http:\/\/tsinghualogic.net\/JRC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/\u4e0b\u8f7d.jpeg 205w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 167px) 100vw, 167px\" \/><\/td><td>&nbsp;<\/td><td><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-986 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/tsinghualogic.net\/JRC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Stokhof-200x200.jpg\" alt=\"Stokhof\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/tsinghualogic.net\/JRC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Stokhof-200x200.jpg 200w, http:\/\/tsinghualogic.net\/JRC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Stokhof-80x80.jpg 80w, http:\/\/tsinghualogic.net\/JRC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Stokhof-400x400.jpg 400w, http:\/\/tsinghualogic.net\/JRC\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Stokhof.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/td><\/tr><tr><td> <p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Johan van Benthem<\/strong> (\u8303\u4e19\u7533) is a University Professor of Logic at the University of Amsterdam and Professor of Philosophy at Stanford University.
