Susan Renee Loepp is an American mathematician who works as a professor of mathematics at Williams College.[1] Her research concerns commutative algebra.[2]

Loepp graduated from Bethel College (Kansas) in 1989,[2][3] and earned her Ph.D. in 1994 from the University of Texas at Austin, under the supervision of Raymond Heitmann.[4] After postdoctoral studies at the University of Nebraska she took her present faculty position at Williams.[2][3]

With William Wootters, she is the co-author of the book Protecting Information: From Classical Error Correction to Quantum Cryptography (Cambridge University Press, 2006).[3][5][6]

In 2012, Loepp won the Deborah and Franklin Tepper Haimo Award for Distinguished College or University Teaching of Mathematics of the Mathematical Association of America.[2][7] In the same year, she was elected as one of the inaugural fellows of the American Mathematical Society.[8]
