Biography
editEducation
editHervé Crès was admitted to the École normale supérieure (S1987) and then to Sciences Po, from which he graduated in 1990. He then completed his doctoral studies at the Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne University, where he obtained a doctorate in applied mathematics in 1994, then at the University of Geneva (PhD in economics).[2]
Career
editAfter obtaining his first PhD, Hervé Crès became an assistant professor of economics at the University of Pennsylvania. He left this university in 1997 to join HEC Paris, where he was director of the economics major. He became director of the doctoral school in 2004, then of the Grande école Program in 2006. Hervé Crès was then appointed deputy director of Sciences Po Paris in 2008. He was director of initial training from 2008 to 2012, succeeding Laurent Bigorgne.[3]
He was appointed provisional administrator after the death of Richard Descoings on April 3, 2012. His appointment was then contested by some of the institution's staff who demanded a "new procedure" for recruitment and election.[4] He was replaced by Jean Gaeremynck in November of the same year, pending the appointment of a general director.[5]
Seeing his application rejected at the end of 2012 by the Minister responsible for Higher Education, he says he is "collateral victim" of the emotion provoked by the revelations of the Court of Auditors report concerning the management of his predecessor Richard Descoings.[6] He resubmitted his application in 2013 but was not selected in the final list by the search committee. In the end, Frédéric Mion was appointed Director General.[7][8]
He has been a visiting professor at the University of Geneva, the University of Copenhagen and Koç University (Istanbul).[9]
He is the Dean of Social Sciences at New York University Abu Dhabi from 2014 to 2020.[10]
