The Institute was founded with an endowment offered to the Servants of India Society by Shri R R Kale. The Servants of India Society was formed in Pune Maharashtra in 1905 by Gopal Krishna Gokhale, who left the Deccan Education Society to form this association The Servants of India Society, a registered body founded by the nationalist leader Gopal Krishna Gokhale (1866-1915), are the trustees of the Institute.

The Institute is registered under the Societies Registration Act, 1860, and the Bombay Public Trusts Act, 1950.

The Institute was set up with an objective to conduct research on the economic and political problems of India and to train research workers in these disciplines. Professor Dhananjaya Rao Gadgil, a renowned scholar and visionary, was the first Director of the Institute. Under his leadership, the institution laid the foundation for research, teaching and training in different branches of economics. From those days it has evolved into a premiere institute for advanced study in economics boasting of faculty and alumni who have distinguished themselves nationally and internationally as academicians, policy makers and consultants.

Research

The major research areas of the Institute, developed over the years through financial assistance from various sources, are: Agricultural Economics, Population Studies, Economic History, Input-output analysis for planning and development, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, Monetary Economics, Financial Economics, Public Economics, International Economics and the study of economics of East European countries. Agricultural economics originally applied the principles of Economics to the production of Crops and Livestock — a discipline known as Agronomics Economic history is the study of how economic phenomena evolved in the past The Input-output model of economics uses a matrix representation of a nation's (or a region's economy to predict the effect of changes in one industry on others and by Microeconomics is a branch of Economics that studies how individuals households and firms and some states make decisions to allocate limited resources typically in markets Macroeconomics is a branch of Economics that deals with the performance structure and behavior of a national or regional Economy as a whole Financial economics is the branch of Economics concerned with "the allocation and deployment of economic resources both spatially and across time in an uncertain environment" Public finance is a field of economics concerned with paying for collective or governmental activities and with the administration and design of those activities

In the early years, the research activities were financed through assistance from various ministries and public funding agencies including the Government of Maharashtra and private foundations like the Sir Dorabji Tata Trust. Maharashtra, a state in India has had a separate state government since it came into existence as a separate state in 1960. The Sir Dorabji Tata Trust was established by Sir Dorab Tata (fondly called Sir Dorabji) the elder son of Tata Group founder Jamsetji Tata. In 1954, the Union Ministry of Food and Agriculture established the Agro-Economic Research Centre of the Institute. Year 1954 ( MCMLIV) was a Common year starting on Friday (link will display full 1954 Gregorian calendar) During the early fifties, the Rockefeller Foundation made a substantial grant, spread over years, for the conduct of a research programme in rural demography.

Teaching

Although GIPE was primarily a research institute, it was recognized as an institution for higher learning in the field of economics, and it awarded MA, MPhil and PhD degrees in Economics under recognition from the University of Bombay from 1930 to 1949. A Master of Arts ( Latin: Magister Artium) is a Postgraduate academic Master's degree awarded by universities in a large In the usage of India, United Kingdom, United States, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and some other countries the Master "PhD" redirects here for other uses see PhD (disambiguation.

Year 1993 ( MCMXCIII) was a Common year starting on Friday (link will display full 1993 Gregorian calendar) Keeping in view its professional standing and scope for further development, the Government of India, on recommendation of the University Grants Commission, declared GIPE as ‘Deemed University’ from May 9, 1993.

Academic Programmes

The mainstay of the Institute is its MA Programme in Economics, which is acknowledged as one of the best in the country. Though the Institute offered the M Phil Programme for about a decade (1978-89), it discontinued the same, perhaps to devote better attention to the MA Programme and the research projects. The PhD Programme, started right from the inception of the Institute, still continues with a highly selective intake and hence a limited output. Several batches of students have been awarded the MA degrees and more than 165 students have obtained their doctoral degrees in different branches of economics since the inception of the Institute.

The goal of the Institute —to conduct research into the economic and political problems of India and train research workers in these subjects— has been reconceptualised over years so as to confine the activities of the Institute to teaching and research in Economics alone, leaving aside the political problems of India. However, the applied and empirical research into Indian economic problems and policy evaluations indirectly encompass the political dimensions as well.

The curricular content of the ongoing MA Economics Programme offers a blend of core and applied optional courses. The student-faculty ratio is 3:1 for the MA Programme. The Institute offers an option of undertaking a Master’s Thesis as one of its subject credits. A dissertation (also called thesis or disquisition) is a document that presents the author's Research and findings and is submitted in support of candidature Thesis course at the MA level is unique to the Institute; established with an aim to sharpen the research skills of students and enabling them to put their theoretical knowledge to practical use. The Institute also provides a one-year diploma computer programme to provide training on various econometric packages. Econometrics is concerned with the tasks of developing and applying Quantitative or Statistical methods to the study and elucidation of economic principles
