Hanbridge Hub

On July 1st, Hanbridge Institute proudly celebrated the graduation of a very special MSc student—Mr. Sun Changhai. Years ago, he worked tirelessly in Singapore, but due to the social conditions at the time, he had limited access to formal education. Now a successful business owner, Sun made the decision to return to the classroom through Hanbridge Institute’s MSc programme in collaboration with the University of Suffolk.

He shared:
“I’ve been running my company in Singapore for many years. I always wanted to study modern business theory in a more structured way, exchange ideas with lecturers and classmates, and build connections with like-minded individuals.”

Over the course of a year, not only did Sun sharpen his business thinking and make more rational decisions, he also found valuable collaboration and development opportunities. Perhaps most moving is what happened after graduation—Sun continued running his company while hiring two of his MSc classmates, helping them secure Employment Passes (EPs) to remain in Singapore and grow their careers.

From overcoming past educational gaps to upskilling with purpose, from individual growth to team empowerment—his MSc journey represents more than just academic achievement; it’s a transformation in mindset, network, and opportunity.

Why More Working Adults Are Choosing to Upskill in Singapore

In both Singapore and China, academic qualifications are becoming increasingly essential. Many professionals, despite their rich experience, face promotion ceilings due to the lack of formal credentials. Likewise, entrepreneurs seek structured learning to enhance their business management capabilities.

Against this backdrop, Singapore has emerged as a highly attractive destination for further education.

So, why should working professionals consider pursuing a Master’s degree?

Whether you’re switching careers, seeking advancement, or simply want to grow intellectually—many groups such as working adults, business owners, homemakers, or accompanying parents can benefit greatly. A practical, professionally focused Master’s programme offers:

✅ Structured Knowledge in Business: From strategic management to financial analysis—upgrade your thinking.
✅ Modern Perspectives: Curriculum reflects current industry trends, taught by experienced industry professionals.
✅ Networking & Opportunities: Your classmates are professionals from various sectors—sparking ideas, collaboration, and access to real resources.
✅ Career Boost: Whether you want to stay in Singapore or return to China, an internationally recognised qualification adds weight to your profile.
