KDIS was established in 1997 as a research and educational arm of the Korea Development Institute, Korea’s leading think tank. KDIS has moved its campus from Seoul to the new administrative city – Sejong in the middle part of South Korea early in 2015.
KDIS has established a knowledge infrastructure for analyzing and examining the policy measures currently undertaken in various areas. Such knowledge infrastructure has enabled KDIS to also provide policy-oriented master’s and doctoral programs in order to educate the next generation of leaders in the public and private sectors.
