Welcome to University of Oxford
The University of Oxford — a place where centuries of tradition meet world-changing ideas.
Founded in the 12th century, Oxford is the oldest university in the English-speaking world and a global centre for teaching, research, and discovery. From the iconic Radcliffe Camera to the quiet courtyards of its historic colleges, Oxford offers an environment that inspires curiosity, creativity, and excellence.
Here, you join a vibrant international community of students, scholars, and visitors from across the globe. Our colleges, libraries, museums, and gardens are not only places of learning but also spaces for reflection, collaboration, and innovation. Whether you are attending a lecture, exploring our collections, or simply walking through the cobbled streets of this remarkable city, you become part of a living tradition that has shaped leaders, thinkers, and pioneers for generations.
We are delighted to welcome you and hope your time at Oxford is enriching, inspiring, and memorable.
