Course Summary
Everything we do requires a chemical reaction. Breathing, eating, reading, sleeping. Chemistry is the study of everything! So we’ll be selecting from a whole range of fields on our courses from thermodynamics to biochemistry. Keeping up? We’ll also check out specific areas in which your tutor is an expert – you could be diving into specialisms like organometallic chemistry too. Focus on the topics you’re most inspired by and engage with peers from across the pond for a collaborative learning experience.

Accommodation
When you apply to study at our Cambridge Summer School with Oxford Summer Courses, you'll have the choice of staying in a standard room (shared bathroom) or an en-suite room (private bathroom), depending on availability. Our expert team will assign you to one of the prestigious Cambridge colleges where our Cambridge Summer Schools are hosted. Additionally, common spaces are available at all sites, providing you with a place to socialise and relax.
Tuition
Learn the Oxford way with tutorial-style teaching. Your expert tutor will foster self-directed learning and critical thinking through interactive seminars in small groups (no bigger than 8). During your course, you will complete two pieces of independent work (essays or problem sheets), which your tutor will then evaluate in either a 1:1 or 2:1 tutorial. Tutorials will provide you with the opportunity to discuss your work and feedback with your tutor and learn new perspectives from your classmates. On completion of the course, you'll receive a certificate and letter of recommendation from your tutor.
