Biography

Herman van de Werfhorst is professor of sociology at the EUI. He is on leave from the University of Amsterdam. His work concentrates on inequalities in and through education, using both comparative and longitudinal data and research designs. More specifically, Van de Werfhorst studies mostly inequalities by socioeconomic and migration background and gender in school careers, labour markets, and civic engagement. Van de Werfhorst is visiting fellow at the WissenschaftsZentrum Socialforschung Berlin (WZB). He is co-PI of two running data projects: PRIMS (on the social embeddedness of the transition from primary to secondary schools in the Netherlands), and ADKS (Adolescent Panel Study on Democratic Core Values and School Careers).
