Biography

Andre Filiatrault received the B.Ing. degree in civil engineering from Sherbrooke University, QC, Canada, in 1983, and the M.A.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in civil engineering from the University of British Columbia, BC, Canada, in 1985 and 1988, respectively.
After a two-year stay as Assistant Professor at the University of British Columbia, he joined the Department of Civil Engineering at Ecole Polytechnique, University of Montreal, QC, where he became a Full Professor in 1997. From 1998 to 2003, he was a Professor of Structural Engineering at the University of California, San Diego. He is currently the Deputy Director of the Multidisciplinary Center for Earthquake Engineering (MCEER) and Professor of Structural Engineering at the State University of New York, Buffalo. His research over the past 16 years has been centered on the seismic testing and analysis of civil engineering structures.
Dr. Filiatrault the Gzowski Medal by the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering in 2001 and the Moisseiff Award in 2002 by the American Society of Civil Engineers.
