Mathematics

Studying Maths at Jesus has been fascinating and fun. It has taught me how to think rigorously about the structure of maths, and (on the applied side) how general relativity and quantum mechanics tell us the world works.

Jesus is a great College - just far enough out of the centre of town to be fairly quiet, but still conveniently close to everything, and has great facilities. The Jesus mathematicians have got a pretty good tradition of socials too.

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.

Jesus has a really strong contingent of historians sitting a range of papers, so we all give each other help and advice as well as learning from academic...

Education

The best element of this course is its multidisciplinary approach to the study of education, and the incorporation of other subject areas. The incredible diversity of a week’s lectures has challenged me to think holistically and to write with versatility. As someone with very wide interests, I have thoroughly enjoyed the breadth of subjects spanned on the course, and it has allowed me to find areas of particular interest in which to specialise in my final year.

The drama papers are excitingly full of potential to work with your...
