Natural Sciences (Biological)

The Natural Sciences course is perfect for anybody with a broad interest in science, allowing you to initially take very different combinations of courses before specialising later. I think the fairly wide background in biological sciences I have gained is really important for putting my current research into context.

Cambridge is simply a brilliant place to be a biochemist – it’s an amazing feeling to know that many of the seminal discoveries discussed in lectures were made right here, not least Watson and Crick’s famous determination of the structure...

Theology, Religion, and Philosophy of Religion

I chose to do Theology, Religion, and Philosophy of Religion at Cambridge because it was the most diverse and flexible course for this subject available.
