In 2009, the University will be celebrating its 800th anniversary.
As one of the world's leading universities, Cambridge has a reputation that reflects the intellectual achievement of its students and the outstanding work of the academic community of the University and the Colleges. Over the last 800 years, its contribution to the world has ranged from the discovery of the mechanism of blood circulation to the structure of DNA, from the great philosophers of the early 15th Century, to the groundbreaking work of its many Nobel Prize winners.
The University will be marking its 800th anniversary with an exciting and varied programme of events. We will be celebrating the ideas, people and achievements from the University that continue to transform and benefit the world and to look forward to future developments. It is also a chance to thank students, staff, alumni and the local community for the contributions they make to the university.
