Women in Maths is a residential programme for potential female applicants to Mathematics and related highly mathematical courses at top universities. It is designed to help you experience Cambridge life, explore the colleges, and get a feel for the academic challenge and social side of studying there.

Across the programme, you will explore Christ's and Trinity Colleges, attend taster lectures led by academics, and meet current students from Maths and other subjects, as well as admissions staff. The residential also includes social activities and gives you the chance to ask questions about university study, the admissions process and what it is like to live and learn in Cambridge.

The event is free of charge, with meals, accommodation and participant travel costs covered.
