Dr. Huyen T.T. Nguyen

I am an interdisciplinary social scientist specializing in natural language processing (NLP), applied econometrics, and experimental economics. My work bridges academia, industry, and policy by addressing pressing issues such as gender equity, discrimination, and decision-making in high-stakes environments. My current research is aimed at recruitment and talent assessment in increasingly automated workplaces.

I hold a PhD (cum laude) in Economics from Erasmus University Rotterdam and Tinbergen Institute. In my PhD research, I analyzed competitive debate speeches and committee deliberation decisions using NLP and econometric methods to uncover patterns in how language and biases influence outcomes. This work informs both academic understanding and practical approaches to improving fairness and transparency in organizational decision-making. I invite you to read my dissertation and watch my defense.

On this site, you will find my CV, research, teaching materials, and resources designed for both academic and professional audiences.
