UTC Cambridge is a University Technical College located on the Bio-Medical Campus which encompasses Addenbrooke's Hospital, next to the Long Road Sixth Form College in Cambridge, which opened in 2014.^[1]

Its sponsors include Cambridge Regional College, Cambridge University Health Partners and the Sanger Institute.

UTC Cambridge students engage in Challenge Projects (held by regional employers such as AstraZeneca and Zeiss) between 10 and 20 hours per week for six to eight weeks. Challenge Projects are cross curricular in nature and engender innovation and enterprise while upskilling students in the latest scientific and computer technology.

Students generate a portfolio of evidence of their developing professional, technical and employability skills that leads to evaluation by external moderators of the Duke of York Award.
