abstract
  • About ASCS The Association of Students of Commercial Studies (ASCS) is a non-profit making association, representing all students falling under the Faculty of Economics, Management & Accountancy (FEMA). Its office is currently situated in the Students’ house, together with the other student organizations. The following are the mission and objectives of ASCS as laid down in its statute: "Mission To serve as a catalyst, to promote and enhance the student's professional presence and image through awareness in our society. Objectives ASCS shall strive to improve the standard of commercial education in Malta. It shall seek to improve the status and welfare of students of commercial studies in Malta, at the place of study and the place of work. It shall make representations to University employees, professional and other authorities, both local and foreign, connected with commercial education, in furtherance of the above aims. It may publish its own journal and other material and hold seminars, meetings and other activities, in order to promote its aims. It may cooperate with other student associations, both local and foreign, in furtherance of these aims." (Statute of the Association, amended 2/07/03) ASCS started way back in the 1980s when the FEMA was still in its infancy and commerce students were only a few. But still the need for unity and representation was felt among commerce students, mainly in having a ‘say’ in the direction of the FEMA - and that is when ASCS was born. The mission and objectives enacted that day, although changed in words, are still fundamentally the same as today’s. Unfortunately, after a successful start, ASCS declined a little over the decade, but was revived again in the 1990s. Interestingly, one of its committee members at the time was Mr. Gordon Cordina, which today lectures in economics at University. During that period, ASCS was particularly successful, organising activities and seminars on a broader scale. In fact, one particular seminar was organised on a nationwide scale with a huge number of people attending including heads of state and other dignitaries. After this successful revival, alas, ASCS declined once again. It was again revived a couple of years ago, mainly in 2000 and continued to grow again over these two years - where a new logo and motto i.e. Il- Munitu were adopted. Website: www.ascsmalta.org
