School Relationship to Explore New Higher Education Model
July 9, 2025, Wuhan, In a significant move to promote international cooperation in higher education, Asia Pacific Business School (APBS) and Wuchang University of Technology (WUT) have officially become sister schools. This partnership aims to explore an innovative higher education model integrating the educational resources of China, Singapore, and Vietnam.
APBS, based in Singapore, has long been renowned for its strong business - oriented curricula, international faculty with rich industry experience, and its strategic location in one of the world's major financial and business hubs. The school has a proven track record of nurturing students with a global perspective, equipping them with the skills and knowledge required in the modern business world.
On the other hand, WUT, located in Wuhan, China, is a comprehensive university with a wide range of disciplines. It has a strong emphasis on practical education, providing students with abundant opportunities for internships and hands-on learning. WUT also has a solid foundation in scientific research and has made remarkable achievements in promoting innovation and entrepreneurship among its students.
Under this new cooperation framework, the two institutions plan to carry out a series of joint educational programs. Notably, WUT has authorized APBS to be its exclusive recruitment and joint - cultivation partner in Vietnam. This authorization enables APBS to play a leading role in recruiting Vietnamese students interested in WUT's high - quality educational programs and jointly cultivating them through a well - designed curriculum system that combines the advantages of both schools.
The joint educational programs are expected to offer students a unique learning experience. By integrating the educational resources of China, Singapore, and Vietnam, students will not only gain in - depth academic knowledge but also develop cross - cultural communication skills and a global mindset, which are highly valued in the current era of globalization.
Both APBS and WUT leaders have expressed their enthusiasm for this collaboration. Dr. Jianyin Yiyan, Rotating Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Asia Pacific Business School, stated, "This sister - school relationship marks a new chapter in our efforts to promote international education. We are confident that by joining hands with WUT, we can create unparalleled educational opportunities for students across China, Singapore, and Vietnam, fostering talents who can thrive in the global arena."
Professor Zhou Dongming, Dean of the International Education College of Wuchang University of Technology, added, "WUT has always been committed to expanding international educational exchanges. Partnering with APBS is a strategic step towards achieving this goal. We believe that through this cooperation, we can leverage each other's strengths to provide students with a world - class education that bridges different cultures and knowledge systems."
Mr. Shi Shaohui, Director of APBS's Wuhan Resident Office, talked about the cooperation and its prospects. "The collaboration between APBS and WUT is built on a foundation of mutual trust and shared educational values. In the long run, we aim to not only develop successful joint programs but also establish a platform for academic exchanges, research cooperation, and cultural interactions. This will not only benefit the two schools but also contribute to the overall development of higher education in the region."
Both APBS and WUT believe that this sister - school relationship will open up new horizons for higher education cooperation among China, Singapore, and Vietnam. It is also expected to contribute to the cultivation of a new generation of international talents with comprehensive qualities, promoting educational exchange and cooperation in the Asia - Pacific region.
