Ao completar 100 anos, a SBI pode dar o balanço do que é a sua vida como instituição, no que marca a sua diferença, a sua "idéia de obra" ou a sua imagem, de um país de memória fraca e de imaginário estereotipado. Até os anos 20, a SBI - mantenedora da Universidade Candido Mendes - se identificava, na prática com o desenvolvimento da Academia de Comércio do Rio de Janeiro, ou, na corruptela em que chegava ao povo a "Esculimia do Candido Mendes ". Nasciam as duas entidades em 1902, ambas pioneiras. Uma, a desdobrar pela primeira vez no país e para as classes médias em começo de expansão, a idéia de um curso profissional. Fugia-se ao padrão das clássicas carreiras liberais do amadorismo das atividades clássicas de balcão de mercancias no Rio de Janeiro ainda mofino, às vésperas da grande explosão urbana do Prefeito Passos.

A meta do CESV é a autonomia intelectual do aluno. Ao longo do curso, ele é motivado para definir problemas, examinar várias alternativas para tratá-los, integrar diferentes áreas do conhecimento, fazer leituras, buscar dados, pesquisar, entrevistar, estruturar o seu raciocínio, chegar a conclusões e apresentá-las em público, de forma correta.
A Iniciação Científica (IC) tem sido a valorização do trabalho em grupos de pesquisa, com a participação de vários professores e alunos. Nessa atividade, dá-se ênfase a um trabalho de pesquisa que colabore não só no processo de transformação da Faculdade e da sociedade, mas também na integração entre pesquisa e ensino na graduação e na pós-graduação. Com esse objetivo, o CESV já organizou, em 2003, a sua "1ª Jornada de Iniciação Científica" na qual participaram alunos bolsistas do Cesv, alunos da pós-graduação, professores, pesquisadores do Cesv e convidados.
