Background


Oxford was the first University in the English-speaking world. The aim is to remain at the forefront of centres of learning, teaching and research. Oxford’s remarkable global appeal continues to grow. Students from more than a hundred and forty countries and territories make up a student population of over 20000. Over a third comes from outside the United Kingdom.

But it is not just longevity and global reach that mark Oxford out and give the University its special character. Oxford is distinctive college and a tutorial system which underpins a culture of close academic supervision and careful personal support for its outstanding students. The colleges and halls of which there are more than forty also help to foster the intense interdisciplinary approach that inspires much of the outstanding research achievement of the University and makes Oxford a leader in so many fields. It is an approach especially suited to confront many of the hugely complex challenges that faces everyone.
