“Friendly academic staff”
Rachel D

OverallHaving supervisions means you can tailor your course to your interests and discuss those interests with your supervisors. Naturally, not every supervisor is perfect but I've really liked all of mine and have found them very academically supportive. The course is broad and has opportunity to discuss a range of topics within your field and to narrow down what you personally want to focus on.

“Better than Oxford”

Overall
There's a lovely sense of community and people wanting to help each other. There's more work to do in one month here than you might get across a whole degree at other universities, but that doesn't mean that you're left to do it alone. Students and teachers alike are happy to help you out and do something for you, to put a real smile on your face.

“Good resources”

Overall
You get free access to every book published and you're taught by leading figures in your field, so pretty good. The supervision system is great if you like close contact time with people who know the material well. Lots of societies and programmes to be a part of too. Hard to find time to really take advantage of everything on offer, to be honest.

Overall
Formazione di ottima qualità che corrisponde alle esigenze degli studenti. Ottima preparazione in materia di economia, cui si abbina un attenta supervisione da parte dei docenti e un ottimo ambiente sociale in cui fare amicizie e networking. Vale decisamente il costo del corso.

Overall
The univeristy of Cambridge is an elite academic institution. The economics bachelor is highly theoretical, and fouses on quantitative methods. This is because the goal of the economics bachelor is to prepare students for a career in academia. I am very happy at Cambridge University.
