Before you apply

  • Check the actual Cambridge teaching venue, accommodation address and travel arrangements. A course using a Cambridge college venue is not, by itself, evidence that the University of Cambridge runs or endorses it.
  • Check age eligibility and any academic prerequisites for the exact session, not just the overall programme.
  • Ask what feedback students receive and what they will study, practise or produce. Ask how students test their solutions and what mathematical or physics knowledge is needed. Confirm equipment, software and supervision for practical projects.
  • Confirm current dates, fees, cancellation terms and what is included with the provider before applying.
