Mathematics Open Day
Event cancelled
Lucy Cavendish has a small but dedicated Mathematics community, and recent undergraduates have excelled in all parts of the course.
The Cambridge undergraduate mathematics course, known as the Mathematical Tripos, is internationally renowned. Highly challenging but also equally rewarding, it is wide-ranging and flexible, giving scope to students to determine their own work load and pattern. It offers a springboard to success in a variety of sectors, including business, commerce, industry and academia.
Further information about the course can be found on the Faculty and University websites.
