'''ENSAE Paris''', officially '''École nationale de la statistique et de l'administration économique de Paris''' ({{IPA|fr|ekɔl nɑsjɔnal də la statistik e də ladministʁɑsjɔ̃ ekɔnɔmik də paʁi}}; "Paris National School of Statistics and Economical Management"), is a [[grande école]] in France and a member of IP Paris ([[Institut Polytechnique de Paris]]). ENSAE Paris is known as the specialization school of [[École polytechnique]] for [[economics]], [[finance]], [[applied mathematics]], [[statistics]], and [[data science]]. It is one of France's top engineering schools and is directly attached to France's [[Institut national de la statistique et des études économiques]] (INSEE) and the [[Ministry of the Economy and Finance (France)|French Ministry of Economy and Finance]].{{citation needed|date=August 2021}}

==History==
The ENSAE was established in 1942 by the [[National Statistics Service]] (ancestor of the [[INSEE]], National Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies) under the name School of Applied Statistics. In 1946, with the creation of INSEE, the school took the name of INSEE Specialization School. At this time, the school led to two types of administrative careers: "administrateur" (the highest managing level of the INSEE administration) and "attaché" (a lower level) civil servant executive. Early promotions included five or six "administrateurs" students and five or six "attachés" students.

The decree of 2 November 1960 changed the school's name to the National School of Statistics and Economic Administration. As a result, the number of students grew, and the school opened to graduate students from law schools and universities of economics. Finally, the decree of 15 April 1971 clarified the administrative status and the objective of the school in the academic field, designating the ENSAE a [[Grandes écoles|Grande Ecole]].

In the 1980s, a scholarship system was established to support doctoral studies. In addition, a research laboratory, the [[Center for Research in Economics and Statistics|CREST]] (Center for Research in Economics and Statistics), a joint laboratory with Ecole Polytechnique, was formed in 1988.

In 1994, the Department of training for "attachés" became a full-fledged school, the [[École nationale de la statistique et de l'analyse de l'information|National School for Statistics and Analysis Areas information]] (ENSAI, relocated to [[Rennes]]). The "administrateurs" training stayed at the ENSAE where increasing numbers of students chose to specialize in financial modeling and other new areas of applied statistics such as biostatistics or quantitative marketing.

In 2006, Prime Minister [[Dominique de Villepin]] officially announced the moving of the school to the new [[ParisTech]] Campus in Palaiseau, near the [[École polytechnique]], in 2010.

In 2017, the school moved to its current campus in Palaiseau.

== Mission ==

Included in the [[National Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies]] (INSEE) under the tutelage of [[Ministry of the Economy, Industry and Employment (France)|Ministry of the Economy, Industry and Employment]], ENSAE provides training for statisticians-economists, some of which are civil servants belonging to the [[French Civil Service#Great corps of the State|Corps]] des [[Corps of INSEE (France)|Administrateurs de l'INSEE]], a category of top level public managers in the French administration.

Economists and statisticians trained are intended to contribute to the economic research; former students hold positions within international organizations (UN, [[International Monetary Fund|IMF]], [[World Bank]], [[European Commission]],...) and French administration or other public institutions ([[Ministry of the Economy, Industry and Employment (France)|Ministry of Economy]], [[INSEE]], [[Center for Research in Economics and Statistics|CREST]],...).

The school admits students from diverse backgrounds:
* Alumni of [[Classe Préparatoire aux Grandes Écoles|classes préparatoires]] (from scientific preparatory classes MP / PC / PSI / MPI, but also business school preparatory classes ( "ECG") and Humanities and Social Sciences preparatory classes (Khâgne BL)).
* Admission after a graduate degree ([[École Normale Supérieure|normaliens]], [[Ecole Polytechnique|polytechniciens]] students or other holders of [[Grandes écoles]] Master's degrees).
The institution is actually the only French [[Grandes écoles|Grande école]] to admit scientific, business and humanities students, as long as a strong quantitative background is provided.

Since 2006 the school is accredited to deliver the title of "ingénieur" by the French [[Commission des titres d'ingénieur|Commission of Engineering Titles]].

==Academic affiliations==
The school has several partnerships and agreements with other academic institutions where students can complete their curriculum during their specialization year. A large and growing number of students chose to do such dual degree program in order to get an additional Master of Science, [[MBA]] or PhD degree from renowned institutions in the area of economics, finance, statistics, and applied Mathematics where its curriculum is one of the best, such as [[Harvard University|Harvard]], [[Stanford University|Stanford]], [[Princeton University|Princeton]], [[Columbia University|Columbia]], [[New York University|NYU]], [[University of Chicago|Chicago]], [[Cornell University|Cornell]], [[University of Cambridge|Cambridge]], [[University of Oxford|Oxford]], [[Imperial College London|Imperial College]], [[London School of Economics|LSE]], [[Humboldt University of Berlin]], [[University of Mannheim|Mannheim]], [[Universitat Pompeu Fabra]], etc.

The ENSAE also has a partnership with [[Sciences Po Paris]], [[HEC Paris]], [[ESSEC Business School]], [[ESCP Business School]] allowing its students to pursue both curriculum at the same time and get an additional master's degree from said universities. The agreement waives the students from passing the entry written examination.

ENSAE was a member of [[ParisTech]], the excellence engineering cluster gathering the best parisian Grandes Ecoles in each area of engineering: [[École polytechnique (France)|X]], [[AgroParisTech]], [[ENGREF]], [[École des ponts ParisTech|Ponts]], [[ESPCI]], [[École nationale supérieure des mines de Paris|Mines]], [[ENSTA]], [[École nationale supérieure d'arts et métiers|ENSAM]], [[Télécom Paris]], [[Chimie ParisTech]].

In 2019, a portion of these schools (including ENSAE, [[École polytechnique (France)|X]], [[Télécom Paris]]) left [[ParisTech]] to create the "Institut Polytechnique"

== Jobs prospects ==
Former ENSAE graduates work in a variety of fields, including data science and machine learning, as well as finance, management, consulting, economic analysis, and research (in economics and statistics).

About 14% of the recent alumni work in the public sector, the remaining works in insurance (25%), consulting (21%) or other industry sectors.

Around 17% of them get a first job outside France, in particular in London and New York. They are hired by tech firms, financial firms such as banks, insurers or hedge funds for their technical expertise in Data Science, Machine learning, finance, mathematics, economics and statistics.

2006 graduate positions are as follows:
* 53% work in Machine learning/Data Science (including research)
* 33% work in finance insurance:
* 21% work in financial engineering
* 7% are traders
* 11% are actuaries
* 3%  are portfolio managers
* 24% are work in market survey and consulting:
* 10% economic analysis
* 4% consulting
* 1% audit

Since the ENSAE was founded, more than 6,500 statisticians economists, machine learning engineers, and data scientists have graduated.<ref>[http://www.ensae.fr/ensae_engl//index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=29&Itemid=62 First job in 2006] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080407065847/http://www.ensae.fr/ensae_engl/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=29&Itemid=62 |date=7 April 2008 }}</ref>

==Remark==

Note that the abbreviation '''ENSAE''' also refers to [[SUPAERO]], a [[Grandes Ecoles|grande école]] for [[aerospace engineering]] in [[Toulouse]], France (now ISAE). In order to mark the difference between the two schools, ENSAE is called "ENSAE Paris", in reference to the city where it is located.

==Alumni==

As a Grande Ecole, the ENSAE has a strong and organized alumni network. The "Association des Anciens de l'ENSAE" ([[ENSAE Alumni Association]]) manages the links between the different generations of graduates and help them at each stage of their career. The ENSAE Alumni Association is a member of [[ParisTech Alumni]], [[manageurs.com]] and [[AAGEF]]. The current president of the association is [[Julien Guitard]].
