The university has 15,303 undergraduate students, 36,690 graduate students, and 2,535 international students and 3,621 teaching and research staff.

Fudan University was one of China's first universities to accept international students. It has four campuses in Handan, Fenglin, Zhangjiang, and Jiangwan in Shanghai.

Fudan upholds the values of patriotism, solidarity, service, and sacrifice. The university's academic nature is marked by its time-honoured heritage of academic freedom and unrestricted exploration: "rectification of righteousness, illustration of virtue and indifference to honour and reward".
