Over the years many of them would take Francis Xavier as their patron because he,like Ignatius also became a Saint. Today one wonders, how many Indians have been educated at such prestigious institutions as Xavier’s – Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Jaipur, Patna, Ranchi, Hazaribagh, etc. It was as a continuation of the tradition of such hallowed education temples that Xavier Institute of Social Service was established in 1955 at St. Xavier’s College, Ranchi. Initiated with a humble objective of training young men and women in Personnel Management, Industrial Relations and Rural Development & Social Welfare, XISS has trodden a long path of glory and success over the last 50 years. In 1973, the Institute was registered as a separate educational society under the Socieites Registration Act, 1960. Since then in history it has been recognized as one of the most outstanding management schools in India.
In 1978, it moved to its present site and over the years has grown in terms of both apacity as well as resources.
From an extension center of St. Xavier’s College, Ranchi, to becoming one of the India’s most reputed educational institutions, the journey for XISS has all along been guided by the needs and aspirations of the region in which it operates. Education at XISS means sensitizing the students with appropriate values, attitudes and critical thinking tools that set them apart as ‘Professionals with a Difference’. What started 58 years ago as a center of social service founded by the Society of Jesus, has today grown into a reputed business school.
