Cambridge Residential Courses Curriculum

All Cambridge Academy of Transport courses in Cambridge are held on a residential basis and are typically of either one or two weeks duration. Included as part of the programmes are a number of visits to Cambridge sites, many of which are associated with the University of Cambridge such as King's College. The University has spawned over 70 Nobel Laureates and after 700 years remains one of the World's top educational centres.

Since 1978 Cambridge has been the setting for the  residential courses which we offer. One of the highlights of your stay is a tour of the world famous colleges of the University of Cambridge, conducted by Len Lewis, a renowned expert on the city.
