Medicine Masterclass - 21/11/2015

Subject Masterclasses

Subject Masterclasses are aimed at academically-able Year 12 students from any school/college. They are subject-specific events, which offer students a true flavour of undergraduate study and an introduction to the University of Cambridge.

What are they?

The Masterclasses provide students with an opportunity to explore topics of interest beyond what is covered within the A Level syllabus, and offer the chance to experience typical undergraduate teaching at Cambridge.

A range of subjects are offered each year, which in the past have included Chemistry, Engineering, Genetics, Geography, History, Languages, Mathematics, Music and Psychology.

Each masterclass includes:

• two taster lectures delivered by leading academic members of staff from the University
• the opportunity to discuss and ask questions
• an introduction to the Cambridge admissions process
• s chance to ask your own questions about applying to Cambridge
• the opportunity to hear about life as a Cambridge student, from current undergraduates

When are they?

Subject Masterclasses take place on selected days between November and June each year. The majority of Masterclasses start at 11am and finish at 3.30pm.

Booking is essential. Please see below for venue and booking status for forthcoming Masterclasses.
