The Director's Welcome and Introduction

Dear Students,

We often think of education as a passive experience and have come to view learning as mere absorption and regurgitation of information and ideas that seem more a collection of historical and empirical facts rather than something alive and malleable. The Cambridge Experience Programme takes the initiative in promoting education in what we believe is its truest sense – as a culture of learning.

This programme finds its inspiration in the belief that studying should be about challenging and fulfilling oneself not only intellectually but also personally. It is for this reason that we have formulated our programmes to include opportunities to engage oneself with one’s subjects of interest and to actively participate in the acquisition of knowledge.

The Experience, set in the University of Cambridge’s rich historical grounds, provides students with an ideal physical environment for personal and academic growth. This programme is not for the student who is content with mediocre. It is for the student who believes, like us, that learning is about self-development and empowerment, and that being truly educated means being a thinker, a mover and a maker.

I hope that the little I have shared of our vision has motivated you to browse through our website and seriously consider this programme. If you decide to join us at Cambridge, we welcome you to a revolutionary way of thinking and a better way of being.

Sincerely,

Andrew Khoo

Director of Cambridge Experience Programme
