Face-to-face residential weeks take place over the two-year programme.
A typical residential week includes:
- Lectures, panels, seminars and workshops delivered by experts from academia, industry and the public sector
- Presentations and group exercises
- Meetings with supervisors and the Director of Studies
Class discussion is a key feature of the sessions, where learning comes not just through the lecture material but through the shared experience and reflections of the cohort.
Other key events in the two-year calendar include:
- An annual dissertation conference which provides students with the opportunity to present their work to peers, academics and industry representatives.
- An annual, formal debate in the prestigious debating chamber of the world’s oldest debating society, the Cambridge Union Society.
