Dhaka Commerce College

The Dhaka Commerce College project implementation committee was established in 1986 to create a specialized institution for Business Studies. Led by Kazi Md. Nurul Islam Faruky, Associate Professor in the Department of Management at Dhaka College, the committee also included ABM Abul Quashem, then Education Inspector, as co-convener. Additional members were M. Helal, Editor of the monthly University Campus, and S.R. Mojumdar, Lecturer in the Department of Management at Dhaka College, with Mahfuzul Haque Shahin serving as the Member Secretary.

The college officially opened on 1 July 1989, initially operating from King Khaled Institute in Lalmatia, Dhaka. It then moved to a rented site in Dhanmondi 8/A before relocating to its permanent campus on Bangladesh National Zoo Road, Mirpur, on 22 January 1995. Shamsul Huda was the first Principal, followed by Professor Kazi Md. Nurul Islam Faruky, who served from August 1990 to September 2010. ABM Abul Quashem then became Acting Principal, and since March 2012, Professor Md. Abu Sayeed has been leading the institution.

In the 1994-95 session, the college expanded its offerings to include Honours and Master's programs with approval from the National University. Four-year BBA Professional courses were introduced in the 1997-98 session. Today, Dhaka Commerce College offers Business Studies at the higher secondary level, along with undergraduate and postgraduate programs in Management, Accounting, Marketing, Finance & Banking, English, and Economics. {{Cite web |last= |title=History of Dhaka Commerce College |url=https://www.dcc.edu.bd/details?id=2 |access-date=17 August 2024 |website=DCC |language=en}}
