Robert Masters (1713–1798) was an English clergyman and academic, known as the historian of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge.

He continued to reside in college till he was presented by that society to the rectory of Landbeach, Cambridgeshire, in 1756.

[3] Masters was in the commission of the peace for Cambridgeshire, and acted as deputy to William Compton, LL.D., chancellor of the diocese of Ely, who resided abroad.

In 1797, he resigned the living of Landbeach in favour of Thomas Cooke Burroughes, senior fellow of Caius College, who, immediately upon his presentation, married Mary, Masters's second daughter.

[3] His major work is: The History of the College of Corpus Christi and the Blessed Virgin Mary (commonly called Bene't) in the University of Cambridge, from its foundation to the present time.
