In the late 1950s and early 1960s, China began to study economic mathematics methods. During the period of 1979, the China Scholars' Conference agreed to rename the economic mathematics method as quantitative economics, and on the basis of the Economic Mathematics Method Research Association, it expanded the China Quantitative Economics Research Association and later renamed it the China Quantitative Economics Association. Since then, quantitative economics has developed rapidly in China, and there has been a trend of combining economic scientists with natural scientists in this research field.
