Why 1-Academia?

Flexible Learning Pathways

Our programme combines flexible online learning with in-person sessions.

Hyper-Contextualised Curriculum

Unlike generic programmes where F&B or Hospitality is a mere elective, our curriculum is built for Singapore’s F&B, MICE, and Lifestyle sectors.

Accessible Entry

Our M.Sc offers flexible entry requirements. Through our Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) process, your work experience can be assessed and recognised — even if you do not have many formal qualifications.

Project-Based Learning

Our modules focus on project-based learning relevant to F&B and MICE. Graduate with a portfolio of practical problem-solving abilities valuable to the workplace.

Learn at Your Own Pace

Designed for busy professionals, our modular and stackable approach lets you progress at a pace that suits your commitments.

Connected to Singapore’s Industry Pulse

Join a cohort of professionals from diverse F&B, MICE, and Lifestyle backgrounds and learn from seasoned local and international industry veterans.

Why the 1-Academia MSc is Uniquely Different

At 1-Academia, we identified a critical gap in Singapore’s F&B and experience industries: many talented professionals plateau not due to lack of ability, but because of mindset barriers and limited access to academic pathways tailored to their career trajectory. 

Traditional higher education often excludes experienced F&B professionals, while existing training lacks strategic depth and industry-specific relevance.

Our MSc programme addresses this gap by offering a transformative, industry-driven pathway. We empower “unpolished rare gems” with practical experience to bridge theory and practice, enhancing their management skills in finance, compliance, governance, marketing, and digital literacy.

Ultimately, our goal is to unlock untapped potential, enabling participants to contribute significant value, support internationalisation, and access diverse career pathways within 1-Group and across the broader industry.
