About University of Alaska Institute of Social and Economic Research (ISER)

The Institute of Social and Economic Research (ISER) at the University of Alaska Anchorage has been at the forefront of public policy research in Alaska for more than half a century. ISER’s multidisciplinary staff studies virtually all the major public policy issues Alaska faces. That work helps Alaskans better understand the state’s changing economy and population—and the challenges and opportunities that come with change. All ISER’s research is available to the public, and ISER makes sure Alaskans benefit from that research by disseminating publications, presentations, and other products online and in hard copy to government agencies, private businesses, libraries, the press, and individual Alaskans. ISER faculty and staff routinely do presentations to public and private groups around the state, and sometimes in other states or countries. All recent and most older publications are available online. ISER researchers also routinely respond to inquiries from the press and the public. Besides doing research, ISER faculty teach graduate and undergraduate classes at UAA. Classes taught vary by semester, but include economic research, history of the Alaska economy, environmental economics and policy, public land management, research methods, and communication policies and strategies.
