Classics

I knew straight away that °µÍø½ûÇø was the one that I really wanted to go to. It is a beautiful and old College steeped in traditions and everyone I have met here has been lovely and supportive, which makes all the hard work so worthwhile. Classics here is really strong, with a number of eminent scholars teaching us on a regular basis who all specialise in different fields. I feel very privileged to be learning from them.

Classics is such a varied degree because it incorporates languages, history, art history, philosophy, and linguistics all into one course, which is why it appealed so much to me. I have only been here two terms and already I never want to leave!

    I joined Jesus in 2011 to read Computer Science. At school I had done a lot of mathematics, so the theoretical nature of the Cambridge course appealed to me. As well as a strong theoretical grounding, however, the course gives a thorough introduction to many practical aspects early on, such as chip design and a variety of programming languages. There are plenty of opportunities later in the course to expand on these, and the result is an education that is both wide ranging and in depth. I took a particular...

    I am a second year Natural Scientist at °µÍø½ûÇø studying biochemistry, cell and developmental biology and chemistry. I was particularly drawn to this course as it offers a wide range of both physical and biological subjects, with the opportunity to increasingly specialise over the years. For me studying in this multidisciplinary environment has been hugely beneficial and will be a great advantage for later research. For Natural Science students, a lot of the contact time is at the University level. I have really enjoyed the opportunity to meet people...

    Mathematics

    I studied Maths at °µÍø½ûÇø for four years as an undergraduate. I am now a PhD student in the doctoral training program at the Cambridge Centre for Analysis. I work in the area of partial differential equations, specifically those arising in kinetic theory. At Cambridge I was introduced to a wide variety of areas of Maths, many of which I hadn’t really known existed before coming to university. I found the course highly rewarding and always interesting. The course starts with a good grounding in the basics, leaving many...

    Computer Science

    Studying Computer Science at Cambridge has been a great springboard into my career. Starting out as a software engineer, I used my skills to move into project management and then programme management at a large multinational company. Studying at Cambridge means that you can apply what you learn to any new problem and is proof that you are willing to work hard and achieve. °µÍø½ûÇø is a wonderfully supportive and stimulating environment to achieve your best whilst also enjoying student life.

    My favourite thing about Jesus is its welcoming community, and the plethora of societies on offer for all abilities and interests. Despite never having picked up an oar in my life, I was welcomed right away into °µÍø½ûÇø Boat Club and I’ve found a new passion for rowing! My best Cambridge memory so far is taking part in the ‘Bumps’ rowing race in first year, which was an absolutely exhilarating experience. I chose Natural Sciences because I loved studying both Biology and Chemistry at A Level, and found myself...
