The Sherbrooke-Lyon Research Training Programin Acoustics - Projet Samuel de Champlain 2022-2024
Résumé
We present the Sherbrooke-Lyon Research Training Program in Acoustics (“Projet Samuel de
Champlain” 2022-2024, funded by the FRQNT: Fonds de recherche du Québec – Nature et
technologies), which brings together teams from Université de Sherbrooke and from Master of
Science in Acoustics of Lyon. This project aims to build a joint teaching program in acoustics
through joint courses integrated into the graduate programs of the two institutions, research
internships, and academic exchanges of students and researchers associated with the project. The
joint courses are based on existing activities at the two institutions, whose content and teaching
methods (mainly online) are adapted to the project. In the last two academic years, students from
Sherbrooke followed the sound perception course of Lyon in co-modal modalities; and conversely,
students from Lyon followed the smart acoustic lab module offered at UdeS in virtual mode. Three
undergraduate students took also part in the program during their spring/summer internships (in
the other partner lab, resp. CRASH and LVA), developing hybrid and virtual content (numerical
laboratories). The presentation will focus mainly on how such innovative collaboration modalities
can be applied in the context of education and research at university.
