==History==

===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 (Now known as '''Commecs College'''). Three programmes were offered:

* Intermediate Commerce (Affiliated with [[Board of Intermediate Education, Karachi|Board of Intermediate Education Karachi]] – BIEK)
* B.B.A (Affiliated with [[Institute of Business Administration, Karachi|IBA]] Karachi)
* B. Com. (Affiliated with [[Institute of Business Administration, Karachi|IBA]] Karachi)
The educational standards were set to conform to the vision of the founders. Encouraged and motivated by the initial success, CET launched the science discipline in the year 2003 and changed the name of the institute to Commecs Institute of Business and Emerging Sciences (CIBES).

In May 2007, CIBES received a charter from 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.

===Present===
Commecs College at present is running an [[Middle school|Intermediate]] Programme in affiliation with the [[Board of Intermediate Education Karachi]] (BIEK), offering the disciplines of:

* [[Commerce]]
* ''Pre-Engineering''
* ''Pre-Medical''
* [[Computer Science]]

==Launch Of PECHS Campus==
There had been a persistent demand for Commecs College City campus which could cater to the needs of students living in [[PECHS]], [[Garden, Karachi|Garden]], [[Defence Housing Authority, Karachi|Defence]] and other neighbouring localities.

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