Study in Cambridge
Cambridge is an historic university town, with attractive colleges, medieval streets, lavish gardens and
bridges that stride the River Cam.
The University is famed for its scientific legacy, being the alma mater to famous
scientists such as Isaac Newton and Charles Darwin and Stephen Hawkins.
Cambridge is also a city of music, art and culture. Carols from King’s College Chapel are an annual event as is the
summer Strawberry Fair and a festival of world music, arts and crafts. There are many museums, outdoor markets,
theatres, restaurants and shops.
Located at the heart of the Fens, Cambridge prides itself on its greenery and its natural landscape. Behind the
riverside colleges lie The Cambridge Backs, with great views of the colleges and the River Cam.
The River Cam comes alive in the summer as students and visitors take to the punts.
Its academic traditions, its cosmopolitan air and its rural surroundings make Cambridge a fascinating and stunning
place to study.
