UG CamGuides: A Week in the Life

Introduction

The 'week in the life' project was co-created with 11 students currently studying at Cambridge from different disciplines and with different interests. The students created this content in their own voice to represent their own experiences of navigating the Cambridge 'week'.

Overview

Hi!  I'm a second-year Historian at Gonville & Caius College. In a series of three videos, I'm going to be taking you through the different stages of my week. Whilst this is just a representation of a week in my life at Cambridge, I hope it will give you a good idea of where you'll be working and what you'll be doing as a Historian - as well as some of the things you can do outside of study. After all, Cambridge is just as much a home as it is a university - doing the washing or going for a shop is just as common as academic work and exciting events.
