NHH - Norwegian School of Economics

NHH Norwegian School of Economics (Norges Handelshøyskole) is a triple crown accredited business school that was founded in 1936. It is the longest established centre for research and study in the fields of economics and business administration in Norway and has been intimately associated with some of the most significant developments in the fields of finance and economics. The list of internationally renowned NHH alumni and faculty members includes Karl Borch, co-founder of modern risk theory, Jan Mossin, one of the fathers of the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), and Finn Kydland, winner of the Nobel Prize for Economics in 2004. Continuing in this mould, the Centre for Experimental Research on Fairness, Inequality and Rationality (FAIR) has established a reputation at the highest level internationally, with its groundbreaking experimental research on how to address inequality in society.

The school offers the most sought-after educational programmes in economics and business administration in the country and currently has around 4,000 students across the wide spectrum of bachelor’s, master’s, Executive MBA, executive education and PhD programmes. Graduates benefit from strong analytical skills developed during their studies and the school provides an excellent student and learning environment, with a very active student organisation and close ties between students and faculty/staff. This results in a strong alumni network that, combined with their academic abilities, makes NHH graduates highly desirable throughout their careers.

Extensive links with various actors in the public and private sectors enable the school to share skills and knowledge in the fields of management and economics with both the business community and public institutions and organisations. Partnerships and joint ventures with leading institutions abroad give NHH an international profile that extends the school's network and activities across the globe
