Holocene Climates is no longer accepting new applications.

Studying this Programme at Cambridge, alongside leading academics in this field, has been a life-altering experience.  As an aspiring paleoclimatologist, this MPhil has deepened my knowledge of cutting-edge research and broadened my appreciation of other research areas that I previously had not considered, such as working in the onsite tree ring laboratory. It is clear that every single academic on this Programme is passionate about their research and this comes across in their teaching and unwavering support. I feel proud in being part of its first cohort as the knowledge and practical skills I have gained will, undoubtedly, be a great asset for my future career.
