Murray Edwards College, Women's college in Cambridge, England

Murray Edwards College features modernist buildings with concrete structures, expansive gardens, and a notable dome-shaped dining hall on Huntingdon Road.

Established in 1954 as New Hall, the college changed its name in 2008 following a donation from Rosalind Edwards and her husband Steve.

The Women's Art Collection within the college contains more than 500 works by female artists, representing the largest collection of its type in Europe.

The college provides accommodation for 300 students in modern facilities including Pearl House, which contains en-suite rooms and shared kitchen spaces.

Astrophysicist Jocelyn Bell Burnell conducted her groundbreaking pulsar research while studying as a PhD student at the college in 1967.
