The 'Cambridge Philosophical Society' (CPS) is a scientific society at University of Cambridge. It was founded in 1819. The name derives from the medieval use of the word philosophy to denote any research undertaken outside the fields of theology and medicine.
The society has published several scientific journals, including ''Biological Reviews'' (established 1926) and ''Mathematical Proceedings of the Cambridge Philosophical Society'' (formerly entitled ''Proceedings of the Cambridge Philosophical Society'', published since 1843). ''Transactions of the Cambridge Philosophical Society'' was published between 1821-1928, but was then discontinued.
Members of the Society are called Fellows and are usually academics or graduate students involved in mathematical or scientific research within the University. The equivalent organisation for philosophers is the Cambridge Moral Science Club.
