The Institute of Economic Research attached to Seoul National University was founded in 1961, with about 50 researchers including all of the professors in the department of economics and some SNU professors who majored in economics or business administration. Its main objectives are: investigating economic problems both in theoretical and practical terms, and adding to the stability and growth of the national economy. The institute is proud to have contributed to the growth of the Korean economy by stockpiling numerous researches on the economy of Korea and the world, and by publishing various journals on economics. The IER publishes a quarterly journal-Seoul Journal of Economics (in English). It also exchanges economic data and information with about 40 private and government institutions. Moreover, the Institute also hosts a number of symposiums jointly with other research institutes over the world.
