Mithibai College of Arts Faculty Profile, Mumbai

Professors were the best part of the course apart from the activities as well as projects. BMM had 3 permanent faculty and many visiting faculties as per the demand of the subject. The visiting faculties often were industry experts giving us a sneak peek into the real world out there. There were a total of approx. 12 teachers for the self-financed courses and many visiting faculties as per need of the subject. Many times departments used to invite industry experts for seminars, workshops, activities.

Needless to say but the faculty is highly experienced and knowledgeable and even with strength of 1800 most of the lecturers knew all their student's names. The college has taken care of its faculty and our department consisted of one associate and nearly five assistant professors. The lecturers were easily accessible and always ready to help. Dr. (Ms.) Vidya Premkumar was the head of our department and used to interact with students from time to time.

The professors in the college always encouraged us to improvise and were available in case of any help required. Seminars, conferences, and guest lectures were common practice at the auditorium to help us attain a deep knowledge of arts.Read Full Review

There were just four faculties who were permanent as the rest all were guest faculties. People from India Today Group, Times Now Group, BBC and others people from media where the ones who took lectures and provided us with much-needed internship. I worked for BBC, and mind you, Mithibai helped me work with one of the best in the business. I did a few projects for India Today Group and some for BBC. BBC means no filter, no spices, just the factual news, and rather responsible journalism is what I learned from the guest faculties of BBC. Talking about the permanent faculties, they too had experience of working in the media industry but teaching enticed them rather more and therefore they have become one of the most renowned professors of Mumbai University.Read Full Review
