Department's History

In 2016, the Department of Marketing celebrated its 50th anniversary. It began to take shape in the 1960s, when the system of the State Committee for Logistics of the USSR was functioning. To provide all parts of this system with highly qualified personnel and the development of the scientific base in several economic universities of the country, training of economists in material supply was organized. In Ukraine, such training began for the first time in 1961 at the Kyiv Institute of National Economy at the Department of Industrial Economics.
