<p>At <a href="http://www.nhh.no/en/research---faculty/department-of-economics.aspx">NHH, the Norwegian School of Economics and Business Administration</a>, the first chairs in economics were created at its foundation in 1936. The Department of Economics itself was not established until 1951/52. From the beginning, a broad range of research interests were represented, and from the outset academic research has occupied a central place in the activities of the Department. Since the late 1960s, its members have been very active contributors to international economics journals. Many of them have also taken a strong interest in matters of economic policy, sometimes as members or experts on government committees, and sometimes as contributors to public debate about current economic issues.</p>
