The term ''högskola'' was at this time also established for specialised higher educational institutions outside the universities, such as the [[Royal Institute of Technology]], ''(Kungl.) Tekniska högskolan'', which bore that name from 1877. The Stockholm School of Economics was formally founded in 1909 on private initiative as a response to rapid industrialization and a growing need for educated businessmen and company managers and has maintained close ties with the business community ever since. While founded as a business school, the subject of economics featured prominently in the research and curriculum of the school from the beginning. The most well known scholars of the Stockholm School of Economics are arguably the economists [[Eli Heckscher]] ([[professor]] of [[economics]] and [[statistics]] 1909â1929, professor of economic history 1929â1945), and [[Bertil Ohlin]] (professors of economics). Heckscher is also known as the founder of [[economic history]] as an independent academic discipline and his work ''Svenskt Arbete och Liv'' is a fundamental work within this subject. Ohlin was also a leading figure within the school of doctrine with the same name, the so-called [[Stockholm school (economics)|Stockholm school]]; a group of leading [[Scandinavia]]n economists influenced by [[Knut Wicksell]], most of them active in Stockholm, either at the Stockholm School of Economics or the [[Stockholm University College]]. This school of doctrine was to have a profound influence on post-WWII Swedish economic policy and the development of the modern [[Scandinavian welfare model|Scandinavian]] [[welfare state]]. Heckscher and Ohlin jointly developed the so-called ''[[HeckscherâOhlin model|HeckscherâOhlin theory]]'', the standard international mathematical model of international trade. Bertil Ohlin received the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1977 (shared with British economist [[James Meade]]). Other prominent members of the Stockholm school were the [[Stockholm University]] professor [[Gustav Cassel]], who developed standard economic theory of [[Purchasing power parity]] and economist [[Dag Hammarskjöld]], [[Secretary-General of the United Nations]] in [[New York City]], United States. The school is a full member of the [[Association of Professional Schools of International Affairs]] (APSIA), a group of schools of public policy, public administration, and international studies. == Academics == === Admission === For Master programmes, applicants have to have a GMAT score of over 600 and a TOEFL iBT score of over 100 in order to be considered suitable for applying.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hhs.se/Education/MSc/Pages/default.aspx|title=SSE - Education - Master Programs|website=www.hhs.se|access-date=11 April 2018}}</ref> In the academic year 2012/2013 the university received 3261 applications for the four Masters programmes which it offered at the time.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://vhs.se/PageFiles/11483/MASTER-HT2012-sista__betdag.xls?epslanguage=sv |title=Archived copy |website=vhs.se |access-date=12 January 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140810021746/http://vhs.se/PageFiles/11483/MASTER-HT2012-sista__betdag.xls?epslanguage=sv |archive-date=10 August 2014 |url-status=dead}}</ref> Therefore, the according acceptance rate would have been low. === Grading === SSE uses a 5-grading scale which includes the following, Excellent (5.0), Very Good (4.0), Good (3.5), Pass (3.0) and Fail (0.0). A Grade Point Average (GPA) is giving between 3.0 and 5.0. There is also a possibility to obtain an award, Outstanding Achievement, which implies that the student gets at least Excellent as final grade, and that it's the first time the student are taking the course. The person responsible for the course have the opportunity to award up to 10% of the students with Outstanding Achievement. The award does not impact the calculation of the student's Grade Point Average (GPA). Furthermore, the 10 percent of students with the highest GPA in the BSc programmes who complete the studies on time, that is, no later than three years after they were enrolled, receive the President's list award.

Today, there are some 14 000 alumni in this network. In addition to the alumni are the so-called ''SSE IFL Networkers,'' previous participants at IFL open or custom programs, these sum up to an additional 10 000. SSE maintains contacts with its alumni in a number of different ways; both through direct and indirect contacts and through various types of communication channels. Contacts are administered through the ''SSE Alumni Office''. Today, many alumni are involved in the school's advisory board, the alumni association's board, the Student Association ''et al.'', all aligned to SSE activities. Even more alumni return to the School as guest lectures, or sponsors of course projects, as suppliers of internship opportunities, or as recruiters from large companies. Currently, if an alumnus wishes to connect with another SSE graduate, they have five primary options: 1. Attending the alumni events arranged by SSE Alumni Office 2. Networking through the ''SSE Alumninet,'' a web portal open to holders of an SSE diploma. Alumninet had some 14 000 members as of January 2013, or through the official LinkedIn groups maintained by SSE 3. Membership in ''the Alumni Association of the Stockholm School of Economics'' â an alumni association sponsored and organized by alumni for Swedish-speaking graduates of SSE â or by joining ''the American Friends of SSE'' â an affiliated alumni group, based in the US. 4. Joining any of the unofficial alumni groups and networks, maintained by the alumni themselves, e.g. in the UK. === Noted alumni === {{See also|List of Stockholm School of Economics people}} * [[Sebastian Siemiatkowski]], co-founder and CEO of [[Klarna]] * [[Jacob de Geer]], co-founder and CEO of [[iZettle]] * [[Dan T.
