About Campus

In September, 1959, a philanthropist and visionary Shri Karamshibhai Jethabhai Somaiya in an inspired moment envisaged the blending of spiritual education along with advanced Science education which eventually gave birth to Somaiya Vidyavihar.

In the following five decades, the Somaiya Vidyavihar campus grew to thirty five institutions catering to the needs of students from primary to post-graduate level.  The educational conglomerate located in a lush green campus admeasuring sixty acres of land at Vidyavihar and thirty four acres at Sion-Chunabhatti in the eastern suburb of Mumbai, is an institution to be reckoned with in the education scenario of Mumbai, Somaiya Vidyavihar is recognized both nationally and internationally. Pujya (Late) Dr.S.K.Somaiya, the worthy son of the founder and the Ex-Vice-President of Somaiya Vidyavihar, has provided a dynamic leadership for an exponential growth and diversification of these institutions. Presently Shri. Samir S. Somaiya is at the helm of Somaiya Vidyavihar as its Vice-President.

Value education is the foundation of modern education and is a unique feature of Somaiya Vidyavihar institutions.
