Engineering at Cambridge College
Ages 15 - 17
Passionate about Mathematics and Sciences, and want to learn how to bring them together to make a real difference?
Our Engineering course at Cambridge will help enhance your theoretical knowledge and help lay the foundations for an incredible career in engineering.
Our Engineering summer school course is designed for students who wish to develop their understanding of thermodynamics, mechanical engineering, fluid dynamics, aerodynamics and electromagnetism through university-style seminars, lectures and workshops.
With engineering being an intersection of innovation, design and construction, at Cambridge our students apply these principles through analysing the construction of bridges, buildings, electronic circuits and mechanical design.
With its history, culture and record number of Nobel Prize winners, few places can capture your imagination as much as Cambridge, making it the perfect place to study Engineering this summer.
The objective of Summer Boarding Courses’ Industry Experience is for our students to feel better informed about what it is truly like to work and study in their field of interest. For Engineering students, this includes interactive workshops, lectures, and active research projects led by leading professionals, often in a live working environment in which your subject area is applied.
Strengthen your knowledge of key Engineering subject areas in both theory and practice.
Through coaching sessions with our academic experts, enhance your university application with the knowledge, motivation and ambition you demonstrate on this course.
With our dynamic and challenging programme we are delighted to offer a course that provides future engineers with exciting opportunities to learn how to function as part of a successful team in our Time to Shine projects.
Improve your ability to apply scientific and mathematical rules to eye-catching designs. This is a central focus in our Engineering project module design task in which students will be given an engineering challenge task that they will research and develop, before presenting their results to an audience of their fellow students.

Although the course is designed to test students’ abilities, our teachers are experienced in teaching mixed ability classes. Depending on the group’s competency with English and ability to absorb new material, our teachers can adapt according to the needs of our students.
For this course, participants are required to have a B2 and above level of English. Before the summer, your Admissions Manager will send your child(ren) an online placement test to complete. This will help us to ensure that this course is suitable for your child to participate in and benefit from.
Each student is awarded with a certificate of completion during our graduation ceremony at the end of the course.
A variety of SBC handouts are given to students, all of which were created by our own academic team.
Students should have their own pens, and are provided with notebooks and folders.
It is not necessary to read anything beforehand in order to participate fully in the programme, however it would be helpful for students to continue improving their English if they feel that they need more practice.
This was a great experience, I now know I really like the field of Engineering and for the future I know which major I will go into. This was great to put on my CV and a way to get to know everyone.
