Due to

Good evening from the Philippines. Some English professors consider this phrase wrong: Due to circumstances beyond our control...

If so, may I please know the reason why it is wrong? And how should it be rephrased to make it correct?

Many, many thanks again!

Due is an adjective and must hinge on a noun, that is why.

Just ask your professors to study the history of the English language and no doubt they'll arrive at the right conclusion.
