Audrey Guinchard joined the department in October 2000, having taught at the University of Jean Moulin Lyon III in France, from 1995 to 2000. Her degrees include the traditional succession of law degrees in France (DEUG, Licence, Maîtrise), plus a D.E.A. (Diplôme d'études approfondies) in Private and Criminal Law (option Criminal Law). The Maîtrise was granted by transfer of credits obtained at Boston University within a student exchange program.
In December 2001, she completed a Ph.D. in Criminal Law at the University of Jean Moulin (Lyon 3), her thesis being entitled « Les enjeux du pouvoir de répression en matière pénale. Du modèle judiciaire à l’attraction d’un système unitaire » (The power to impose penalties in criminal matters. From the judiciary model towards a unitary criminal system). It involves not only criminal law, but also human rights, constitutional, commercial and administrative laws.
In March 2002, her qualification to a post of « maître de conférences » was granted by the Conseil national des Universités (National Council of the Universities).
