Elsa Cauderay

Elsa Cauderay serves as a Lecturer within the Section of Architecture (SAR) at the School of Architecture, Civil and Environmental Engineering (ENAC) of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL). She actively contributes to the SAR Teaching Committee and instructs the Building technology V course (AR-340), focusing on integrating bio/geo-based materials into construction while addressing environmental and technical challenges.

Her research and teaching emphasize sustainable building practices, with core expertise in bio-based material applications and environmental impact reduction in construction. She develops pedagogical frameworks for critical building design that prioritize ecological responsibility without compromising technical feasibility. Her work bridges theoretical knowledge with practical implementation in sustainable architecture.

Cauderay maintains active engagement in curriculum development through the SAR Teaching Committee, though no specific grants, awards, or student supervision details are publicly documented. Her professional focus remains concentrated on advancing sustainable construction methodologies within architectural education.
