The Center for Economic Research (Centro de Investigación Económica, CIE in short) was established in the spring of 1993 with the intention of developing a center dedicated to scientific research in the field of economics. Its fundamental objectives are to become a leading international research center and to act as a link between ITAM and the international scientific community.

The strategy of the CIE has been to:

• integrate a group of internationally renowned and highly productive scholars,
• identify and provide guidance to undergraduate and graduate students who have strong academic interests,
• establish an active communication channel with the main research groups in the world, through seminars, academic events and exchange programs for faculty members and students.

CIE has full-time members who are engaged in cutting-edge research in their respective fields. Our affiliated members as well as visitors contribute substantially to our intellectual atmosphere. The Economics Seminar, which meets on a weekly basis, receives speakers from top economics departments and research institutions around the world.
