Veterinary Medicine

The Veterinary Medicine course here at Cambridge always feels different to how I view the subject is taught at other universities. The strong focus on basic science provides a brilliant background in scientific thinking which can be applied to practice as well as opening doors into research careers.

Through small group teaching at Jesus and even in the whole year group lectures of 65 students, I'm getting excellent personal support from the staff. Within the Jesus College community I've made friends across all subject areas and we have easy...

Theology, Religion, and Philosophy of Religion

The Theology Tripos is possibly the most varied arts course available at undergraduate level - at least, that's been my impression.

Classics

What sets Classics at Jesus apart from other Colleges is the way in which the teaching is inspiring, but not intimidating. If being taught by some of the world's leading authorities in a relaxed and supportive College environment appeals to you, then studying Classics here is something which you should really consider. I count myself lucky every day to have applied to such a warm and sociable College.
