Both UK and International students are welcome to attend. What are they? Subject Masterclasses are subject-specific events that offer high-achieving students in Year 12 (or equivalent) the chance to experience typical undergraduate teaching at the University of Cambridge, and to get a flavour of what it's like to be a student here. Students currently in Year 13 (or equivalent) are also welcome to attend our virtual series this Autumn. The Masterclasses cover a range of subjects and provide students with an opportunity to explore topics of interest beyond what's covered within the school curriculum. Each virtual Masterclass includes: two live taster sessions delivered by leading academic staff from the University the opportunity to ask questions an introduction to the Cambridge admissions process the chance to hear about life as a Cambridge student from current undergraduates When are they? The virtual Subject Masterclasses are taking place throughout November and December 2021 (see table for dates and booking links). Please note that bookings close on the Monday preceding each Masterclass to allow sufficient time for attendees to complete preparatory work, so do ensure you book in advance if you wish to attend. All Subject Masterclasses will be recorded and will be available to view for students who have registered in advance. Registered students will be able to access the recorded session until 5 January 2022.
