Biographical Sketch:

Phil Rubin joined the Department in 2003, after nine years on the faculty at the University of Richmond (UR) and a year as a visiting fellow at CERN. He earned his undergraduate degree in Sociology from the University of Pennsylvania and a master's degree in the same field from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). He later earned his Ph.D. in Physics from UCLA and spent three years at Syracuse University as a post-doctoral researcher and one year at The College of William and Mary as a research assistant professor before starting at UR.
