Welcome to the SPSF Program in the Faculty of Economics at Sophia University!

Economics is a discipline that helps us understand how society works and provides tools to help shape a better future. By analyzing data and studying economic behavior, you will develop a broad and insightful perspective.

Learning alongside peers from diverse cultural backgrounds will also help you appreciate different values and the importance of living together with mutual respect.

I hope your time in this program will be filled with academic growth, meaningful friendships, and rich experiences.
