St. Xavier’s College, Kolkata started offering Commerce courses since 1946. The  Commerce Department has contributed enormously towards the creation of a good number of professionals and entrepreneurs in the country, who have brought national and international fame to the College. The motto of the College is ‘Nihil Ultra’ (Nothing Beyond). Our aims are set on the highest ideals.

St. Xavier’s College was recognized as an “A” grade institution by the National Assessment & Accreditation Council in 2003. It was also declared a Centre with Potential for Excellence by the University Grants Commission on 9^th May 2006.

July 2006 ushered in a new era in the history of St. Xavier’s College when the autonomous status was conferred on it by the University of Calcutta. The institution is the  first autonomous college in West Bengal. The implications of the autonomy are that the college is free to frame its own curriculum and courses of studies as well as adopt innovative methods of teaching. A continuous process of performance evaluation of the students can also be undertaken. The degrees are conferred by the parent University with the name of the College being indicated in the certificates.

The College, which had already started PG courses in Computer Science and Bio-technology, introduced Post-graduate Course in Commerce (M.Com.) since September 2007. The curriculum and syllabi had been framed by the faculty of the Commerce Department with active co-operation of the people from industry and academia. The University of Calcutta has approved the same.

The course curriculum aims at (i) offering modern and quality education in the higher studies in Commerce; (ii) to assist the students to have competitive edge in a globalised environment; (iii) providing specialized knowledge and skills with practical orientation through industry exposure; (iv) facilitating the development of competency for research in the various upcoming fields of commerce, and (v) developing human resources with social values to cater to the needs of industries and academia at national and international level.
