tripos

At the University of Cambridge, the term Tripos (, plural 'Triposes') refers to undergraduate examinations which qualify an undergraduate for a bachelor's degree.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.queens.cam.ac.uk/life-at-queens/about-the-college/university/the-jargon )〕 It also refers to a course taken by an undergraduate. For example, an undergraduate studying mathematics is said to be reading for the ''Mathematical Tripos'', whilst a student of English literature is reading for the ''English Tripos''.
In most traditional English universities, a student is expected to register to study one field exclusively, rather than having "majors" or "minors" as in American universities or Scottish universities. In practice, however, degrees may be fairly interdisciplinary in nature, depending on the subject. The multi-part tripos system at Cambridge also allows substantial changes in field between parts; the Natural Sciences Tripos is especially designed to allow a highly flexible curriculum across the sciences.
==Etymology==

The word has an obscure etymology, but may be traced to the three-legged stool candidates once used to sit on when taking oral examinations (confer ''tripod'').〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Structure of our courses )〕 An apocryphal legend says that students used to receive one leg of a stool in each of their three years of exams, receiving the whole stool at graduation. Another tradition holds that the name derives from the three brackets printed on the back of the voucher.〔"Essay on Triposes" in ''The Classical Journal,'' Volume 13; p. 83; No. XXV, March 1816.〕
