Kulsrud studied at the [[University of Maryland]] (bachelor's degree in 1949) and the [[University of Chicago]], where he completed his master's degree in 1952 and received his doctorate from Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar in 1954 (''Effect of Magnetic Fields on Generation of Noise by Isotropic Turbulence''). From 1954 he was in the Matterhorn Nuclear Fusion Project at [[Princeton University]] and subsequently at the University's Plasma Physics Laboratory. In 1964 he became head of the theoretical department. 1966 professor at Yale University, 1967 professor of astrophysical sciences, where he retired in 2004.
In 1993 he received the [[James Clerk Maxwell Prize in Plasma Physics]].
