Session 4A: Dags att byta namn på företagsekonomin
Presentation (svenska)
Nils Brunsson (Uppsala universitet)
Den olycksaliga idén från att vår disciplin skulle heta företagsekonomi kom från ett fåtal personer verksamma vid den då i akademiska sammanhang mycket perifera Handelshögskolan i Stockholm 1932. När ämnet skulle introduceras på universiteten på femtiotalet krävde ansvariga ett byte till ett akademiskt mer passande namn men i stället sköts introduktionen upp.

Martin Biörklund, what made you choose the Law Programme at Karlstad Business School?
- I was born and raised in Karlstad. When I moved back after studying in Gothenburg, I decided that I wanted to become a lawyer and, by chance, Karlstad University had just established its own law programme.
What were your expectations for the degree programme – and did it live up to your expectations?
- When I was in Gothenburg, I studied the first year of a programme in engineering at Chalmers.
