Girton College, Cambridge

This intense four-week academic summer programme will give ambitious engineering students the extraordinary opportunity to experience Cambridge academic life in the context of a programme specifically designed for high-achieving university students.

Girton College is one of the larger constituent colleges of the University of Cambridge. Founded in 1869, Girton is a vibrant community of scholars, from all walks of life, united in their passion for learning.

The College’s beautiful buildings, excellent facilities and spacious grounds are located just outside the city centre, and Girton is well known for its relaxed and friendly atmosphere – the perfect place in which to meet like-minded students from around the world.

The engineering areas covered are those in which Cambridge has a particularly strong reputation, namely nanotechnology, jet engines and quantum technologies.

Students will have a minimum of 45 hours of contact time, and they will receive a grade for the work they complete at Girton.
