How are economic decisions made, and what are the consequences of these decisions? How should competing firms make pricing and investment decisions?
By addressing these questions the Department of Economics aims to understand major global challenges such as climate change, economic instability and growth, economic development and national and global welfare and inequality.
The Department is built around a number of internationally renowned research groups in a wide range of fields, providing high quality research and teaching in economics.
The faculty members constitute an enthusiastic group of women and men who deliver important contributions, both to the international research community, the government, and the public debate.
The paper titled "The Big Impact of Small Change: Fresh Estimates of English Wheat Market Integration, 1693-1893"" by Liam Brunt and Edmund Cannon has been published in The Economic History Review.
NHH Professor Bertil Tungodden has been awarded NOK 22 million from the ERC to investigate a fundamental question in economics: When are markets morally legitimate?
The principle of equal pay for equal work has existed for a long time. But what good is it if employees do not have enough information to know whether they are actually being treated unfairly?
This week, NHH researchers will receive publication bonuses for scientific articles published in selected journals on NHH’s and the Financial Times’ publication lists.
