Rachel Etta Rudolph

I am an Associate Professor in the UC San Diego Philosophy Department. I work primarily in philosophy of language, including its intersection with value theory, social philosophy, and philosophy of artificial intelligence. 

I co-organize S-Babble, an interdisciplinary working group at UCSD on topics including semantics and philosophy of language.

I received my PhD in philosophy from the University of California, Berkeley. Before that,  I lived in Montreal, Canada. I was drawn to philosophy through the Liberal Arts Program at Dawson College, and completed my BA in philosophy and German at McGill University. Before moving to San Diego, I was a faculty member in the philosophy department at Auburn University.
