Satisfied with the overall experience and faculty.

Infrastructure: The faculty was amazing. The campus was beautiful with a lot of flowers and plants, a heaven of greenery. The facilities were great, from the computer lab to classrooms to the library. Canteen food was average but not bad. Quality could be rated as 7/10, at least for me.

Faculty: Faculty was amazing, extremely qualified, and best at what they did. Some teachers were quite strict but really knowledgeable. Yes, the course curriculum is extremely relevant and helps you gain on-field information as well. The semester exams are quite difficult but easy to manage if you have attended your lectures well.

The library uses SLIM 21 software for all information management. The library is central and common to all academic activities. In the girls' hostel, there are 105 beds. Sports facilities like badminton court, basketball court, football ground, cricket ground, chess, table tennis, and volleyball court are provided.

An economics degree helps prepare to gather knowledge regarding numerical, analytical, and problem-solving skills like business planning, marketing, research, and management. Economics helps you to think strategically and make decisions to optimize the outcome. Sophia College is famous for events and we have one of the best fests in Mumbai which is Kaleidoscope. Our campus life is very great. There are many activities, clubs, and programs to keep you occupied. The student population is diverse and that is great for personality development. Many scholarships are provided like The RWITC Scholarship for academic excellence, The Suryalata Doshi Scholarship, and The Margaret Menezes Scholarship.

Sophia college has an amazing infrastructure. You'll certainly fall in love with the campus.

Placements: 4-5 companies visited the college for placement. But the process was disrupted due to covid 19. Top companies include Aditya Birla. The maximum package was 6L CTC. Top roles offered were in sales, HR, Digital Marketing etc. It is easy for students to get internship from Internshala.

Infrastructure: Our college is among the few in Mumbai which provide accommodation. The hostel is nice and clean. The mess food is also satisfactory. The hostel has limited seats so you can also look for accommodation near and around the campus. The college has huge classrooms with AV facilities.

Faculty: The faculty is nice and helpful. The professors are very reachable. The teaching quality is up to the mark. There are frequent seminars and speeches regarding either career counselling or regarding some general issue. The canteen is also good with vast variety of food.

Other: The best thing about my course was that I studied 3 subjects till second year and got to select one as my Majors in the 3rd year. It helped me explore my interests. Sophia College has one of the fest best in Mumbai called Kaleidoscope and many other like MUN sophical etc.
