The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
I want to talk to you a little bit about the University of Cambridge more broadly and what it means to be at a collegiate university. Business school is a department within the University of Cambridge. For postgraduate students that are pursuing master's degrees, like an M. B. A. Your department is where all of your academics happen, Your colleges are where more of your social and welfare is taken care of. Regardless of what program you're studying regardless of what level you're studying at is part of a college within the University of Cambridge, which is what makes it a collegiate university. I am in christ college which is a college kind of centrally located within the city of Cambridge and it takes both undergraduate and postgraduate students. To me, one of the benefits of being part of a collegiate university is getting access to brilliant people from all different walks of life that are studying a variety of different things and the college is a great way to be able to access that and leverage that opportunity. Oftentimes students, including postgraduate students, will live with their colleges. Now that means you're either living on site and the main campus of your college or your college might own some accommodation that's a little bit further out from the city but owned and run and operated by them. You also have access to the dining halls, the cafeterias, bars, christ college is a swimming pool as well. So depending on the college, they're different types of facilities that are available for students, it's good to look into this before you pick which college you want to apply to so that you're making sure that it aligns with what you're interested in, what you use the most.
