Professor of Physics and Astronomy, USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences

Vahe Peroomian has been teaching physics and astronomy for over 20 years, with a teaching philosophy centered on the success of not just a select few students in each class, but each and every student that is enrolled in the courses he teaches.

Vahé has 25 years of research experience in space science (specializing in geomagnetic storms and their societal impacts) with funding from NASA and the National Science Foundation.

In addition to his passion for astronomy, Vahe is an avid photographer and an author on the Serway and Jewett series of physics textbooks.

From 2005 to 2020 Vahe served as a member of the Board of Trustees of Glendale Community College (GCC) in Glendale, California, a city-wise elected position to which he was reelected three times.
