Pippa Rogerson

Philippa Jane Rogerson is a British solicitor and academic. She is senior lecturer in law at the University of Cambridge, where her research covers the conflict of laws and company law. She is also a member of the university's council, and a fellow and director of studies at Gonville and Caius College, where (since 2018) she now serves as Master, succeeding Sir Alan Fersht.

Rogerson studied economics and law at Newnham College, Cambridge, receiving her BA in 1983,[1] and went on to be admitted as a solicitor in 1986, working for Clifford Chance.[2] She became a fellow of Caius in 1989[3] and was awarded her PhD in 1990 for a thesis entitled Intangible property in the conflict of laws.[4]

In May 2017 the college announced that Rogerson was elected the next master of Caius, succeeding Sir Alan Fersht when he retired at the end of September 2018.[5] She is the college's first female master, and was installed as such on 1 October 2018 in a special evensong service in the college chapel.[6]
