History and architecture
The School was established in 1954 as Management Studies in the Engineering Department of the School of Technology.
In 1990 it became the Judge Institute for Management Studies. In 1991, benefactions from Sir Paul and Lady Judge, together with the Monument Trust, provided the funds for the construction of a building for the newly formed business school. Architect John Outram was appointed to the project. The building was completed in August 1995 and officially opened by Queen Elizabeth II.
The Judge Institute of Management Studies was renamed Judge Business School in September 2005. It adopted the title Cambridge Judge Business School during 2010, and revised its logo to read "University of Cambridge Judge Business School" rather than "Cambridge Judge Business School" in November 2010. It remains in the School of Technology, as an independent Department.

The MPhil Finance is a one-year postgraduate course in finance designed for people with no prior work experience.
