Personal Profile
听

Dr. Floris Goerlandt obtained a degree of Master of Science in Engineering (Marine Technology) from Ghent University (Belgium), and a degree of Master of Science in Maritime Sciences from Antwerp University (Belgium). After a period in the shipping service industry, with technical and operational assignments in Belgium, Norway, Singapore, China, and Finland, he obtained the degree of Doctor of Science (Tech.) in Marine Technology, with a focus on Risk and Safety, from Aalto University (Finland).

Following an assignment as a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Catholic University of Leuven (Belgium), a part-time assignment at the Baltic Marine Environment Protection Commission (Finland), and a faculty position as University Lecturer at Aalto University (Finland), he took up the position of Assistant Professor in the Industrial Engineering Department at AV俱乐部. He currently also holds the Canada Research Chair (Tier 2) in Risk Management and Resource Optimization for Marine Industries. In this context, he is co-lead of the Maritime Risk and Safety (MARS) Group, working together with Dr. Ron Pelot.

His research interests cover several aspects of applied risk management for marine industries, authorities, and associated stakeholders. Current projects focus on analysis and modeling of risks to coastal communities due to shipping disruptions caused by major natural hazards, oil spill risk assessment and management, and development of decision support tools for tactical and strategic oil spill response. He also contributes to foundational issues in risk research and safety science, with topics focusing on mapping safety science, uncertainty assessment, and validation. He has authored or co-authored about 30 peer-reviewed journal articles on these topics, about 20 conference articles, and a number of technical reports.

Dr. Goerlandt serves on the Editorial Board of the Safety Science journal, and currently is the lead Guest Editor for a Safety Science Special Issue on 鈥淢apping Safety Science, Reviewing Safety Research鈥�. He also is an active member of the ICES Working Group on Risks of Maritime Activities in the Baltic Sea.
