Welcome to the University of Oxford. People from all
walks of life and all parts of the world have been visiting us for nine
centuries and we are delighted that via this website you are joining
that long tradition. Oxford was the first University in the
English-speaking world. Our 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 twenty thousand. Over a
third comes from outside the United Kingdom.
longevity and global reach that mark Oxford out and give the University
its special character. There is also our distinctive college and
tutorial system which underpins a culture of close academic supervision
and careful personal support for our outstanding students. Our 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 confronting many of
the hugely complex challenges that face us all. That is why we believe
that the greater we can make Oxford, the greater its contribution to the
well-being of the world you and I share.
