Postgraduate opportunities

Postgraduate Outreach Scheme

Cambridge Admissions Office runs a wide range of outreach events to inform students about university and to encourage students from groups who are currently under-represented in higher education to apply. The Postgraduate Outreach Scheme offers paid opportunities for graduate students to support these outreach events. Once accepted onto the scheme, students receive training to help them plan and deliver academic sessions and workshops to school-aged students. There are two main roles within the Postgraduate Outreach Scheme that you can apply for:

Event Supervisors (for any graduate student)

Session Leaders (for PhD students who have two or more years of study left in Cambridge)

Volunteer for Public Engagement

The Public Engagement team offers a wide variety of opportunities that can help Postgraduate students to develop a whole range of skills, such as teamwork, management, communication, business skills and many more. They are always looking for speakers to give talks at their public Festivals, individuals to organise activities or volunteer as stewards at their events.
