NHH continues to grow and develop. In 2001 the school received accreditation from the European Quality Improvement System (EQUIS) and in 2002 NHH joined its CEMS partners to launch the CEMS Master in International Management (MIM).
The Siviløkonom qualification was extended to 5 years in 2003. In line with the Bologna declaration, it now comprises a 3 year Bachelor of Science in Economics and Business Administration combined with a 2 year Master of Science in Economics and Business Administration. The facilities at NHH have been further improved with the opening of Lehmkuhlhallen in 2001, providing new on-campus sports facilities for students and staff.
The portfolio of executive programmes has also been expanded, with the addition of an EMBA in Economic Policy and Administration in 2000 and an EMBA in Brand Management in 2002.
In 2004 NHH alumnus and Adjunct Professor Finn E. Kydland won the Nobel Prize for Economics, together with Professor Edward C. Prescott of Arizona State University.
NHH's international reputation continues to grow. The Financial Times 2005 European Masters in Management rankings rated the CEMS MIM as 3rd, and the NHH Master of Science programme as 19th overall in Europe. The Financial Times survey of alumni also rated NHH Best for Economics and 4th for Finance.
Today, NHH comprises over 2,700 full time students and a total staff of over 330, and the school co-operates closely with the foundations AFF and SNF. Together, NHH and its associated foundations constitute a major academic and organisational entity with more than 470 employees, and they are the leading centre of competence for economics and business administration in Norway.
