Robert Normandeau (born March 11, 1955) is a Canadian electroacoustic music composer.

Born in Quebec City, Quebec, Normandeau studied at the Université Laval in Quebec City, and at the Université de Montréal, where he studied with Marcelle Deschênes and Francis Dhomont. He currently resides in Montreal, where he was appointed Professor of Electroacoustic Music Composition in 1999.
