Fellowships
Providing support for Selwyn’s fellows means that we can continue to offer world-class teaching via Cambridge’s unique supervision system, providing all undergraduates with access to one-to-one or small group teaching with experts in their fields.
Maintaining the supervision system depends on the support of alumni and other benefactors. Below we are pleased to record those fellowships that have been created and sustained via philanthropy. Selwyn is actively seeking additional support for fellowships across many subjects. If you are interested in learning more about this area of our work, please contact the Development Director, Erin Charles ec587@cam.ac.uk for further information.
