Michaël Chopard

Michaël Chopard serves as a Lecturer at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL), specifically within the School of Architecture, Civil and Environmental Engineering (ENAC). His appointment is with the SGC-ENS unit under the Geoinformation and Skills Service (SGC), and his status is formally designated as Invited guest.

His academic expertise centers on Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), where he delivers comprehensive instruction on EIA frameworks, assessment tools, and sector-specific applications within civil engineering contexts. The course integrates practical case analyses, collaborative group projects, and critical evaluation of EIA limitations alongside emerging methodologies such as strategic environmental studies. His teaching directly supports civil engineering curricula through applied environmental governance training.
