List Of University Of Cambridge Members
The following lists feature members of the University of Cambridge, segregated in accordance with their fields of achievement. To be eligible, an individual must have either studied at the university or worked at the university in an academic capacity. As a consequence, honorary fellows are not included and neither are non-executive chancellors. Lecturers without long-term posts at the university also do not feature, although official visiting fellows and visiting professors do. Individuals that have made particularly notable contributions in two very different fields may appear under two categories. In general, however, an attempt has been made to put individuals in the category for which they were best known.
