معرفی
Arne Uhlendorff is a Professor of Economics at Ecole Polytechnique and CNRS Research Director at CREST (Centre de Recherche en Economie et Statistiques) within Institut Polytechnique de Paris. He holds concurrent research fellowships at IAB Nuremberg, IZA, DIW Berlin, and Institut des Politiques Publiques (IPP), and directs the Chaire Sécurisation Des Parcours Professionnels. His academic appointments span multiple prestigious European research institutions with a focus on empirical labor market analysis.
Uhlendorff's research centers on labor economics and policy evaluation, with particular expertise in gender disparities, unemployment dynamics, vocational training, and structural estimation methods. His work frequently employs advanced econometric techniques including randomized field experiments, regression kink designs, and machine learning applications to evaluate labor market interventions. Key thematic areas include:
- Gender differences in training access and benefit impacts
- Early intervention effects for at-risk workers
- Task-based wage determination mechanisms
- Strategic behavior in sickness absence
- Vocational education outcomes
His recent publications reveal a strong emphasis on experimental and quasi-experimental methods applied to active labor market policies, with increasing integration of machine learning for employment prediction. The research portfolio demonstrates consistent focus on policy-relevant questions with direct implications for welfare systems and vocational training frameworks across Europe.
Scientific recognition includes:
- Research Fellow status at four major economic research institutes (IAB, IZA, DIW, IPP)
- Leadership of the Chaire Sécurisation Des Parcours Professionnels
- Regular publication in top economics journals including Journal of Labor Economics and Economica
Uhlendorff actively contributes to policy development through randomized field experiments like the AvenirPro initiative for vocational students and integration agreement trials for welfare recipients. His work bridges academic rigor with practical policy design, particularly in French and German labor market contexts. While specific grant details aren't provided in source materials, his extensive field experimentation suggests significant funding from public policy evaluation programs.
As Director of the Chaire Sécurisation Des Parcours Professionnels, he leads a research team focused on professional trajectory security, collaborating with French labor market institutions to design and evaluate interventions for vulnerable workers. The chair serves as a hub for experimental policy evaluation connecting academic research with practical implementation.
