Tromsø University Business School (TUBS) is the only business school based at a Norwegian university. We offer study programs at bachelor, master and PhD levels in economics, business administration, marketing and strategy, management and innovation, and entrepreneurship. In addition TUBS runs an executive MBA program in economic management and strategy. Our unique taught master program in Business Creation and Entrepreneurship gives hands on experience in starting enterprises based upon new knowledge; the program is taught in English. From the Autumn term 2010 the Master in Economics will also be given in English. Studies at TUBS can readily be combined with other subjects from the University of Tromsø.

The aim for all research at TUBS is national and international excellence. Some of the topics for research - such as small scale tourism - reflect our geographical location in the circumpolar region. Researchers at TUBS have wide-ranging interests and are involved in research projects relating to:

• consumer behaviour
• productivity analysis
• value creation in tourism
• stock market modeling
• industrial marketing strategy
• market regulation
• regional development
• innovation and knowledge creation
• entrepreneurship and network relations
• market demand analysis.
