Student life

Commecs College Jauhar Campus consists of a three-storied building which covers an area of 53,396 square feet (4,960.7 m2) for academic pursuits. Extensive open areas are available for sports and extra curricular activities.

The campus provides intellectual, physical, recreational and cultural facilities, from well-furnished classrooms and modern computer laboratories, to a spacious auditorium and a fully automated library with audio/visual facilities. In addition to basic educational facilities are a prayer room, a conference room, spacious and hygienically clean cafeterias, and separate common rooms for boys and girls.

Background

Commecs College was founded in 1994 by Commecs Educational Trust (CET), a not-for-profit organization, formed by COMMECS (the alumni association of Government College of Commerce & Economics) in 1988. The trustees were concerned at the dearth of good educational institutions in the fields of business, science and technology. As its first step, CET established the Commecs Institute of Business Education (CIBE) in 1993. Three programmes were offered:

  • Intermediate Commerce (affiliated with Board of Intermediate Education Karachi – BIEK)
  • B.B.A (affiliated with IBA Karachi)
  • B. Com. (affiliated with IBA Karachi)
  • The education standards were set to conform to the vision of the founders. Encouraged and motivated by its initial success, CET launched the science discipline in the year 2003 and changed the name of the school to Commecs Institute of Business and Emerging Sciences (CIBES).

    In May 2007, CIBES received a charter from the government of Sindh and recognition from Higher Education Commission (HEC) as a Degree Awarding Institute and started its own BBA and MBA degree programmes, at 40-B PECHS. With this status IBA-affiliated programmes were discontinued.

    Launch of PECHS Campus

    There had been a persistent demand for Commecs College City campus that could cater to the needs of students living in PECHS, Garden, Defence and other neighbouring localities.

    In the year 2013, on the occasion of its 20th anniversary, Commecs College announced the launch of a new campus in Block 6 PECHS and is currently offering intermediate in Commerce and Pre-Engineering disciplines.

    Present

    Commecs College at present is running an intermediate programme in affiliation with the Board of Intermediate Education Karachi (BIEK), offering the disciplines of:

  • Commerce
  • Pre-Engineering
  • Pre-Medical
  • Computer Science
