Academic priorities
Most of the University's academic departments and faculties are grouped into six Schools, with many institutions associated with several Schools and a vibrant culture of cross-disciplinary collaboration. The following are some of the key new programmes for which philanthropic funding is essential. While these are often large-scale projects, every gift counts: you can direct your gift towards any department, faculty or institution at Cambridge, and know that it will make a difference.
