Jean Soquet, of the diocese of Rouen, was a professor of theology.

In 1403 he is cited as master of arts, having taught eight years in the rue du Fouarre and studied ten years in the Faculty of Theology. He became a licentiate in theology in 1422, and was teaching at the same time as Jean Beaupère, Pierre de Dyerée, Jean de Troyes, Erard Emengart, Martin Billorin, Pierre Miget, Denis de Sabrevois, Nicolas Midi, Pierre de Houdenc, Jean Le Fèvre, and Guillaume Adelie, all theologians hostile to the Maid.

Jean Soquet is mentioned for the last time as among the master regents in 1434.
We know that he returned to Rouen in 1433 to the Chapter on business relative to the Council of Bâle.
