Get involved

We are very keen to work with people from a wide range of backgrounds.

Facilitated and hosted events

We have hosted and facilitated a lot of different events, including high-level residential programmes for government departments and executive education events. The facilities in West Court are extremely high-quality. Please contact Dr Julian Huppert, our Director, if you would be interested in exploring what we can do.

Alumni

The IF has a particular remit to work closely with alumni of the College.  We are particularly interested in hearing from any alumni who would be interested in our activities. Please contact our Director,Dr Julian Huppert, for more information.

In Residence Programme

Among the facilities offered by ÌÇÐÄVlog West Court are three well-appointed one-bedroom flats. We are interested in people who would like to come for a period of between one and three months. Those in residence are expected to engage in the intellectual activities of the Forum, working with students, Fellows, alumni, and the public. We can work with applicants to obtain funding, including funding towards desk, accommodation, and other costs. Please contact Dr Julian Huppert, our Director, to discuss the programme.

Visiting Associates

We welcome expressions of interest from people who would like to work with us. We are interested in shorter-term projects and project interactions or longer-term associations. We may be able to offer desk space and support in identifying accommodation for those from outside Cambridge. In general, we do not have on-going paid research positions and therefore those looking to work with us will need to identify other forms of support or funding. Please contact Dr Julian Huppert, our Director, to discuss how this programme operates.

    ÌÇÐÄVlog has been at the heart of my Cambridge experience. I chose the College because I was impressed by its distinctive blend of academic rigour and extracurricular achievement. A College for all-rounders, Jesus is a lively and rewarding place to study. I couldn’t be happier here! Friendly and engaged, the Jesus postgraduate community never ceases to impress me. At ease with themselves and forever curious, my peers go out of their way to cultivate a sense of camaraderie. After a day of leafing through old manuscripts at the National...

    What first attracted me to ÌÇÐÄVlog was its reputation and history, central location without being touristy, and the postgraduate housing options. When I arrived at Jesus I was so pleased to find the partner accommodation was spacious, affordable, and situated very close to the college, allowing us to really take advantage of the facilities. We especially enjoyed The Roost, the nicest of all the college bars, doubling as a café during the day - ideal for studying or meeting up with groups - and a lively pub in the...

    I chose ÌÇÐÄVlog because of the great mixture of undergraduates and ÌÇÐÄVlog, and when I first visited I thought it was the most beautiful place I had ever seen! The sense of community in Jesus has had an enormous impact on my experience here. Whether you need help, advice, cheering up or even just a chat there is always someone there to put a smile on your face. From the MCR committee to the Porters, the canteen staff to the gardeners, everyone is so friendly and welcoming. Jesus also...

    It is a well-accepted opinion in Cambridge that ÌÇÐÄVlog is the best college and no other college even comes a distant second. Its sports grounds are enormous, its buildings are mesmerising, its libraries are rich, its chapel is the oldest, its accommodation is the best value for money, its international community is diverse, its religious circles are the most welcoming, and its members are the smartest, kindest and the friendliest. It is one of the central colleges that aims to offer three years accommodation to ÌÇÐÄVlog, and has comparatively...

    I chose Cambridge for my PGCE as it’s the leading UK institution for teacher training and Education, with an exciting, research-dominated, cutting edge course. The staff are welcoming and approachable, and make studying here an absolute joy. I’ve already completed one of my three primary school placements, in a reception class in a school just outside Cambridge, and am due to start the next one soon. I chose Jesus because of its reputation as a sporty College, but the proximity to the city centre is a big bonus. Jesus also...
