In this episode of EduTrends, we speak with Chua Kee Chaing, President of the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT), about how applied learning is reshaping the mission of universities in the world of work. For him, higher education must balance strong disciplinary foundations with real-world relevance, preparing students not for a single career, but for a lifetime of careers. Throughout the conversation, Chua Kee Chaing outlines how SIT works hand in hand with industry to ensure graduates can “hit the ground running” without sacrificing critical thinking, adaptability, or foundational knowledge.
