  • The university is a confederation of Colleges, each with its distinct character and heritage, contributing to a unique collegiate system that fosters a close-knit community feel.
  • Cambridge is equally weighted across the arts and sciences, boasting a solid reputation in subjects ranging from mathematics and physics to literature and history.
  • It has nurtured countless influential figures and prides itself on a forward-thinking approach to education, blending venerable traditions with cutting-edge research.
  • With a truly international student body, the city and the university offer a diverse cultural experience, enriching the lives of its students.

The city's layout caters to cyclists and pedestrians, making it easy to navigate and imbued with a personal, communal atmosphere.

Cambridge also has strong rail links, simplifying travel to London and beyond, blending the allure of historic architecture with the dynamism of a global knowledge hub. With such pedigree and heritage, it’s no surprise that Cambridge also punches above its weight in the alumni stakes; from comedy geniuses - such as Peter Cook, Eric Idle and David Mitchell - to actual geniuses such as the late Stephen Hawking, the city can boast a strong hall of fame.
