Home » Cambridge University Cancels Face-to-Face Lectures for 2020-2021 Academic Year
Cambridge has become the first university in Britain to cancel all face-to-face lectures for the 2020-21 academic year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
In a statement, Professor and Senior-Pro-Vice-Chancellor Graham Virgo, said, "Given the likely need for continued social distancing, we have decided to suspend mass lectures in person for the next academic year. Lectures will be available online; this system is already in place in some University Departments. Lectures are only one part of the rich education that Cambridge offers and freeing space in lecture halls will allow us to concentrate on delivering small group teaching, lab work and practicals."
