Economics at the Department of Economics since 1811

The activity at the Department of Economics is can be defined as "programmes of study and research in economics at the University of Oslo".

But a look at the earliest history of the University reveals that programmes of study existed long before any department had been founded and that the subject of economics was defined as an academic discipline long before the existence of a study programme.
