English

English at Cambridge encourages you to think differently right from the start, to experiment as much as you can, and find your own interests within the subject. Before I applied, I was anxious about the course being too rigid and ‘traditional’. But I’ve been able to write about things I’d never even considered before - food on stage, tennis in literature, a comparison between the TV show True Detective and Shakespeare.

It helps being at a College like Jesus, where the arts play such a central role in College...

Modern and Medieval Languages

Studying Modern and Medieval Languages (MML) at Jesus College is fantastic because we get to immerse ourselves in foreign cultures.

MML is a popular subject at Jesus and we have teaching Fellows in all languages offered by the University, making it a really supportive and dynamic place to study the subject....

Computer Science

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.

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.

History

Before applying, I thought it was far out of my reach, that Cambridge was only for naturally gifted geniuses, but after I started studying I realised that couldn’t be further from the truth.

The vast majority of people here work hard and love their subject, by far the most important factors for making the most of studying your subject at university. 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...
