Department of Business and Management Science
Research at the Department aims to understand and improve management practice using analytical methods.
We study decision making, governance and efficiency in organisations from a managerial perspective, as well as from the perspective of institutions and investors. Faculty members have backgrounds from economics, finance, operations research, mathematics and statistics, and have a firm focus on publishing research in high quality international journals.
The objective of the department is to benefit the business community and society at large through excellence in research, teaching and contributions to the public debate. Faculty members often appear in the media, they are heavily involved in contract research at the SNF Centre for Applied Research at NHH and they contribute to management training through NHH Executive.

Norwegian gas also needs capture and storage, too
Gunnar S. Eskeland and Asgeir Tomasgard: Equinor's plans concerning emission reductions are well and good, but Norwegian gas also needs carbon capture and storage, if we are to secure ourselves lasting, and profitable, customer relationships.
Gave the government advice about research and innovation in the transport sector
This week the Ministry of Transport received the report Transport21. It is a contribution to strategy for research, development and innovation in the transport sector, directed towards the government, R&D actors and business.
The biggest customer does not necessarily get a better price
Øystein Foros and Hans Jarle Kind: The largest chain store does not automatically get a better purchasing price. It is a big blow for Tine to lose Norgesgruppen as a customer, but it will also cost Norgesgruppen dearly to find an alternative.
