The history of the Department of Business Economics dates back to 1944, when the Department of Political Economy was established within the Faculty of Economics. The modern history of the Department is connected with the activities of the Departments of Political Economy of the Natural Sciences Faculties and the Department of Management and Analysis of Enterprise Operations.<\/p>\n
In the 1960s, with the expansion of university faculties and the growing number of students, there arose a need to take into greater account the specific features of teaching economic theory across the economic, natural sciences, and humanities faculties. Therefore, based on the formerly unified university-wide Department of Political Economy, in June 1963, by order of the Rector of the Kyiv State University named after Taras Shevchenko, three new Departments of Political Economy were established \u2013 for the Faculty of Economics, for the Humanities Faculties, and for the Natural Sciences Faculties.<\/p>\n
During the 1970s, the Department of Political Economy of the Natural Sciences Faculties became a leading department for similar divisions at higher educational institutions across Ukraine. It coordinated educational, methodological, research, and mentoring activities in the field of economic education.<\/p>\n
Over the years, the Department was headed by talented educators and scholars \u2013 prominent organizers of economic science in Ukraine: Prof. Mykola Panchenko, Doctor of Economics (1963\u20131975) Prof. Mykola Chernenko, Doctor of Economics (1975\u20131988) Prof. Yurii Nikolenko, Doctor of Economics (1988\u20131998)<\/p>\n
In 1984, the Faculty of Economics of Kyiv State University named after Taras Shevchenko underwent a reorganization of its existing departments, which resulted in the establishment of a new department \u2013 \u201cManagement and Analysis of Enterprise Operations.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to the Rector\u2019s order, in January 1985, Dr. Liudmyla Vorotina, Doctor of Economics and alumna of the Faculty of Economics, was appointed Head of the Department after winning a competitive selection. In the same year, 1985, the department was renamed \u201cDepartment of Management and Enterprise Economics.\u201d The new department began training specialists in enterprise economics.<\/p>\n
