André Ourednik

André Ourednik is a Lecturer at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), holding joint appointments in both the College of Humanities (CDH-SHS) and the School of Architecture, Civil and Environmental Engineering (ENAC-SAR). His work bridges cartography, spatial analysis, and urban theory with a focus on mobility networks and theoretical developments in human geography.

• PhD in Geography (EPFL, 2010)
• Master of Arts in Geography (University of Lausanne, 2005)
• Professional experience includes roles as a research collaborator at multiple institutions and data analysis projects

Research interests emphasize critical cartography, spatial interaction models, and the interplay between urban design and social dynamics. His work often integrates computational methods and agent-based modeling to explore complex urban systems.

Recent publications address AI's role in future cities, post-car mobility systems, and the theoretical foundations of spatial representation. Notable projects include contributions to the PostCarWorld initiative and the eAtlas du Valais.

Teaching focuses on interdisciplinary approaches to understanding nature and urban environments through courses like 'Penser la nature I & II' in the Social Sciences and Humanities program.
