This year, we’re also marking 50 years of women at Sidney. To celebrate this milestone, the College has established the Sandra Dawson Fellowship, named in honour of Professor Dame Sandra Dawson -  the first female Master of Sidney and the first woman to lead a formerly all‑male Cambridge College.

Academic excellence is the cornerstone of a Cambridge education, and attracting the very best early‑career academics is essential to sustaining it. This Fellowship helps Sidney do exactly that -  enabling us to bring exceptional scholars into our community and support them at a crucial stage in their careers.

Your gift today can help unlock additional funds for this important initiative.
