Introduction to FOC

The Punjab College of Commerce is certainly the largest college of commerce in Pakistan. It has been providing quality education for more than two decades. The results regularly achieved by the students of Punjab College of Commerce are a manifestation of the high quality of education, dedication of the faculty and inspiration of our students.

The Faculty of Commerce is a continuation of Punjab College of Commerce. It is one of the major faculties of UCP. At present the faculty is offering Bachelor of Commerce (Honors) in Accounting & Finance/Banking. The faculty is housed at the Garden Town Campus of UCP. It is fully equipped with the facilities required to train students in the field of commerce. Classrooms with audio visual aids, computer labs, communication lab, library and research center provide students with the necessary tools at their fingertips. The faculty members are qualified, competent and dedicated to their work. Their goal is to inspire students to be able to apply the knowledge they acquire during their studies in practical life situations.

The Faculty is in the process of establishing new programs which will cater to the requirements of our ever-changing world. These planned programs are related to International Trade and Commerce, Agricultural Commerce and Accounting.

The first batch of the Faculty of Commerce graduated in November 2004.  Almost all of these graduates are employed or have started their own businesses.

Value Addition

The degrees offered at Faculty of Commerce give a new dimension to commerce and banking education by providing hands-on training and improving their communication skills.  This value addition most certainly creates better positioning of our student in the job market. 

Our Banking degree not only covers all courses of the IBP banking diploma, but also includes those courses which are vital to the banking sector.
The curriculum is designed in consultation with IBP keeping in mind the needs of the banking sector.  The degree ensures lucrative employment in the banking sector or promotions for those who are already employed in banks and financial institutions.

The M.Phil. program is research-based and is designed to prepare students to take up their Ph.D. degree.
