Our students recently had the opportunity to visit the Department of Engineering at Cambridge University, and it proved to be a truly enriching experience. The visit began with a PhD poster presentation session, where students were introduced to the cutting-edge research taking place in the department. Topics ranged from artificial intelligence to sustainable energy solutions, offering a glimpse into the future of engineering. The evening concluded with a lecture from the esteemed Professor Mark Girolami, who shared valuable insights into his impressive career and provided a forward-looking perspective on the field of engineering.

Year 12 CSFC Cambridge Student, Aleksander summarised his experience:
“After having the opportunity to attend a University of Cambridge lecture by Dr. Mark Girolami, I realised that my two passions of data-science and engineering are interlinked. So much so, that he believes the future of engineering lies in the adoption of big data. This motivated me to choose an EPQ which incorporates computer science and aeronautical engineering.”
We extend our gratitude to Cambridge University for hosting this enlightening visit and inspiring our future engineers.
