Alice Rogers first joined the King's Department of Mathematics in 1983 as a Research Associate with Professor JG Taylor. From 1984-1989 she held an EPSRC Advanced Research Fellowship and from 1989-1994 a Royal Society University Research Fellowship. Since 1994 she has been in turn a lecturer, reader and Professor of Mathematics. She obtained a Ph.D. from Imperial College in 1981 with a thesis on supermanifolds. Her first degree is in mathematics from the University of Cambridge.

Alice Rogers’ publications relate to geometrical and analytic aspects of supermanifolds together with applications in theoretical physics, and she is the author of a book with the title ‘Supermanifolds: Theory and Applications’.
From 2001 until 2004 Alice Rogers was Head of Department. More recently she has been involved in national education policy, serving as a member of the Advisory Committee on Mathematics Education from 2007 until 2011 and as Education Secretary for the London Mathematical Society from 2012 until 2017.

In 2011 Alice Rogers established the King's Factor, a widening participation project for A-level students in London schools. She played a leading role in establishing the King’s College London Mathematics School, of which she is a College Governor.

In 2016 Alice Rogers was awarded an OBE services to mathematics education and higher education. She received the Royal Society Kavli Education Medal in 2018 for 'her outstanding contributions to mathematics education'.
