Marie-Luc Arpin

Professor Marie-Luc Arpin, Research Chair in Net Zero and Life Cycle Strategies
Université de Sherbrooke

Marie-Luc’s background is in engineering (environmental life cycle assessment) and social sciences (social studies of science and technology). She is an assistant professor of management at Université de Sherbrooke’s school of management, and her research focuses on the limits of problem solving in engineering and management.

Her expertise focuses on organizational and social paradoxes (including rebound effects), the social dynamics of digital technology, and socio-epistemic issues of environmental modelling and performance measures. The goal of her research program is to understand the growing complexity of decision‑making and the modern decision-maker’s role (in the context of environmental crises, for example) and to design strategies that enable people to tackle this complexity at different scales.
