Franck Sgard

is team leader of the mechanical and physical risk prevention group at the Institut Robert Sauvé en Santé et Sécurité du Travail (IRSST) in Montreal (Canada). He graduated from Ecole Nationale des Travaux Publics de l’Etat (ENTPE) in Vaulx en Velin (France) as a civil engineer in 1990. He obtained his master’s degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Washington (Seattle) in 1991. In 1992 and 1993, he worked as a research assistant in the acoustic group of the University of Sherbrooke (GAUS). He then started a joint PhD (University of Sherbrooke/Institut National des Sciences Appliquées in Lyon, France) in mechanical engineering (acoustics), which he completed in 1995. From 1995 till 2006, he worked as a professor at ENTPE, teaching acoustics
