Work with Cambridge's world-class collections |
The University of Cambridge holds exceptional museums and collections reflecting Cambridge's position as one of the world's leading universities
As research intensive organisations, the museums and Botanic Garden have presented research and collaborative outcomes through 40 temporary exhibitions, engaging over 1,300,000 visitors.
We've hosted over 7,700 research visits in the past year, with researchers visiting us from nearly 400 institutions and looking at well over 25,000 objects, ensuring our collections are embedded into research outputs worldwide. We've also supported over 14,500 students and loaned 1,300 objects to 156 different institutions
The University collections form a research infrastructure that is unique to the Cambridge research environment. In the following pages you can find out more about each institution and research case studies, as well as the under-researched areas of the collections that would provide the ideal Focus for new collaborative projects.
