----------------------------------------------- Q&A: Ursula Franklin Canada’s very first female professor tells it like it was. by, Anna Kaisa Walker 26 December 2006 Ursula Franklin, 85, received her PhD in experimental physics from the Technical University in Berlin in 1948. In the decades that followed she became a renowned metallurgist, a pioneer of the physics of archaeological materials, an activist, an author, a philosopher, and Canada’s very first female University Professor, at the University of Toronto.
