 She holds a PhD from the former Edgar Morin research center at EHESS, which she completed in 2022, and an M.D. in hypermedia and communications.

 Her doctoral thesis, titled "Les nouvelles idéologies managériales dans la transformation numérique : perspectives critiques sur le quotidien de travail et la révolution de ses cadres d’action," examined the ideological forms accompanying the development of Information and Communication Technologies in the workplace and organizations, particularly focusing on the contradictions generated by new regimes of structuring enterprises in the hypermodern era.

Building on her doctoral research, Djouad has published her first book, La fabrique de l’hypermodernité. Travailler avec les technologies relationnelles, released in February 2025 by ISTE Group.

 The book explores how digital regimes and their bio-anthropotechnies, characteristic of hypermodernity, create unprecedented conditions for existence and work, transforming interpersonal and exchange systems through new ways of communication, writing, task organization, and control.

 She argues that the hypermodern era is marked by a crisis of meaning, particularly in organizations that are fragmented or "liquid," requiring constant adaptation to global market demands, which in turn generates acceleration and both explicit and implicit violence impacting the psychological equilibrium of individuals and groups.

Djouad is also a lecturer at the Institut Catholique de Paris (ICP) in Reims, where she teaches courses on alternative writings.

 Her research interests span social theory, qualitative social research, communication and media, and the sociology of technology.

 She has contributed to academic discourse through publications such
