University of Cambridge logo

The University of Cambridge is one of the world's leading universities, providing a challenging, flexible and individual learning experience. Consistently rated among the top in national and international league tables, the University is globally respected for the quality of our teaching and research, and our students are greatly sought after by employers.

Cambridge is a ‘collegiate’ university. It’s made up of faculties and departments in different academic subjects and 31 Colleges (29 of these accept applications from undergraduates).

Our students become part of their College community, giving them a sense of belonging that lasts long after they graduate. As well as being a member of the University and an academic faculty/department, students also belong to a smaller College community and this system offers a huge amount of individual pastoral and academic support for each student.

The partnership between the University and the Colleges is one of our greatest strengths, it provides superb facilities, contact with the very best minds, and personal supervision and support to help develop your academic interests. We also pride ourselves on the close level of pastoral care provided by College tutors, support staff and student-run networks.

We offer more than 65 subjects within our 30 undergraduate courses (take a look at the course outlines in the courses profiles and the subject A-Z for details). Most of our courses cover the subject area broadly to start with before allowing you to choose from a range of specialisms. This can offer you much greater flexibility than more narrowly focused courses elsewhere.

You're taught by experts in your field through a combination of lectures, practicals (where relevant), seminars, and regular small-group tuition known as 'supervision'. These allow you to explore course material in much greater depth, investigate new approaches, receive regular feedback and clarify anything you're unsure about.
