The College
Gonville & Caius is a College in the University of Cambridge. Commonly referred to as Caius (pronounced 'keys'), the College is at the centre of University life in Cambridge. It is also at the very centre of the town — moments away from the market square, a few minutes’ walk from the University Library and ideally placed for all the University faculties.
The College comprises some 500 undergraduate students, 250 graduate students, and 110 Fellows (lecturers, professors and other senior academic researchers and teachers) and almost 200 staff. The College community plays a significant role throughout the University. Our students come from all over the world and our undergraduates study all the subjects offered in the University. Our postgraduates play a vital role in the research activities of the wider University. Our Fellows have globally renowned research expertise ranging from Ancient History to Cosmology and are all recognised as leaders in their fields.
The College has exceptional facilities: beautiful buildings around the Old Courts in the city centre, as well as modern en-suite accommodation set in extensive gardens just over the river at its West Road site. The College is equipped with excellent teaching and research resources, including an outstanding library and full computing facilities, (including a computer network covering all student rooms). Most importantly, the people of Caius have a spirit of endeavour and excellence which is as relevant today as when the College was first founded nearly seven hundred years ago.
