Fabio Rugge (born 1951 in Lecce) is an Italian political scientist, academic and provost. In June 2013 he was elected rector of the University of Pavia.

After classical studies at Liceo G. Palmieri in Lecce, he attended the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Milan where he graduated in Political Science. He embarked on his academic career in 1977 at the Department of Sociology at the University of Trento. He was an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow at the Technical University of Berlin (1986), a Jemolo Fellow at the Nuffield College, Oxford (1996) and a Woodrow Wilson Fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars (2012).

He was a member of the Executive Committee of the International Social Science Council and has served for seven years on the History of Administration working group of the International Institute of Administrative Sciences in Brussels. Since 1991, he has also been part of the scientific committee of the Istituto per la Scienza dell'Amministrazione Pubblica in Milan and as of 2015 he has become a member of the Rectors' Advisory Group of the Coimbra Group.

In addition to Italian, Rugge speaks and writes in English, French and German. His areas of interest are governmental institutions and public administrations which he analyzes in a historical context, comparing developments in different European countries. His works have been widely published in book form and journals. He sits on the editorial boards of several journals including Il Politico, Grotius, and Storia Amministrazione Costituzione (which he co-directs). From 2005 to 2011, he headed the Department of Political Science at the University of Pavia. He is a member of the board of directors of the G. Romagnosi Foundation, which he helped to found in 2003 and chaired until 2011. Over the years, he has advised many public bodies (among others: the regional councils of Lombardy, Veneto and Trentino Alto-Adige).
