Christophe Dujardin

Graduated in 1998 with a Master's degree in Materials Sciences from the University of Caen, I obtained my doctorate in theoretical, physical and analytical chemistry in 2002 under the direction of Dr. Françoise Maugé (CNRS) in collaboration with Dr. Jacob Van Gestel and Professor Jean-Claude Duchet. My thesis subject focused on the “Characterization of hydrotreatment catalysts by model reactions and infrared spectroscopy: Contribution to the understanding of operation on real load”. From 2001 to 2002, I worked as an International Corporate Volunteer at Atofina Research S.A. (Feluy, Belgium). I then joined the Laboratory of Catalysis (Lille) as Temporary Teaching and Research Attaché then Lecturer in the Catalysis and Solid State Chemistry Unit. I defended my Habilitation to Direct Research from the University of Lille 1 entitled “Contribution of spectroscopic tools to the understanding of catalytic processes for the reduction of nitrogen oxide emissions” on December 7, 2012. I joined as of September 1, 2014, ENSCL as University Professor. ENSCL became an internal school of Centrale Lille Institut in 2020.
