Lucy Cavendish has a diverse and supportive community of Engineers.
The Cambridge course leads to a BA after three years, and ordinarily an MEng, after four. It provides a broad education in engineering fundamentals, followed by in-depth training in one professional specialism. Cambridge Engineers are highly employable, and almost all find jobs within six months of graduating.
Lucy Cavendish hosts a number of events for Cambridge AWiSE, a regional network for women in STEM, and is committed to the Engineering Diversity initiative (previously Women in Engineering), improving the experience of women in engineering.
Further information about the course can be found on the Faculty and University websites.
For other qualifications, see the main entrance requirements pages on the University website.
A Level/IB Higher Level (or equivalent) in Mathematics* and Physics, and a third science or mathematical subject at A Level.
A Level applicants are encouraged to take A Level Further Mathematics if available.
IB Higher Level Mathematics and Physics, a third science or mathematical subject at IB Higher Level.
Mature students and those taking other qualifications are encouraged to contact our Admissions Office, to discuss the entry requirements for their qualifications.
We aim to admit around ten students per year.
All applicants are required to take the pre-interview written assessment for Engineering at an authorised centre local to them (for a lot of applicants, this will be their school/college).
Further details about the written assessment can be found on the University website here.
Applicants are not typically asked to submit examples of written work.
