Peter J. Haproff is a field-based structural geologist with expertise in lithospheric deformation and magmatism related to tectonic processes throughout Earth's history. His research has focused on the nature of Archean tectonics, construction and degradation of collisional orogens, and intracontinental deformation and its relationships with magmatism. Study areas include the Himalaya, Tibetan Plateau, Altaids, southwestern Greenland, and North American Cordillera. Dr. Haproff's research integrates geological mapping, surveying, thermo/geochronology, geochemistry, thermobarometry, and analysis of geophysical data. As of 2024, his findings are reported in twenty-nine peer-reviewed publications and numerous conference presentations. Research projects have been supported by the National Science Foundation, United States Geological Survey, and other funding agencies.

Dr. Haproff received his B.S. degree from University of California, Santa Barbara in 2011 and Ph.D. from University of California, Los Angeles in 2018. He has been a faculty member of the University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW) since 2018. At UNCW, Dr. Haproff has advised several undergraduate and M.S. students and taught a variety of undergraduate- and graduate-level courses, including Structural Geology, Tectonics, and Field Camp.
