About
Minds Underground is the co-curricular division of U2 Tuition, an online enrichment platform that connects academically ambitious students with subject specialists across science, humanities, and the arts. Founded by sister duo Ilana, a University of Cambridge graduate, and Camille, a University of Oxford graduate, the platform was created to give students access to ideas and discussions beyond the standard school syllabus. It draws on a network of over 700 Oxbridge and Ivy League graduates, many involved in ongoing research or working at organizations such as Google, NASA, and Jaguar. Minds Underground offers one-to-one masterclasses, research experience placements, essay competitions, debate clubs, and online summer schools for students aged roughly 2 to 18, alongside enrichment programmes delivered directly to partner schools in the UK and internationally.
