What exactly do we do?

Founded in 1940s, the Cambridge University Physics Society (CUPS) provides the perfect social scene for everyone with an interest in physics. We organise regular events including lecture series, cocktail evenings, the annual Omega Dinner, and a May Week Garden Party. CUPS presents an unrivalled opportunity to enjoy talks by internationally renowned speakers, which have included Stephen Hawking, Jim Al-Khalili, and Roger Penrose, on all subjects ranging from the cutting edge, to the purely historical, philosophical, astronomical, or biological. A drinks reception follows each talk, where there is an opportunity for informal discussion with the speaker.

Sponsors

CUPS is very proud to be sponsored by Metaswitch Networks, Detica, BP, Microsoft Research, Nexus, Hitachi, ECM Selection and our very own University of Cambridge Cavendish Laboratory.
