Oxford

If you look beyond Oxford’s dreaming spires and impressive history, you’ll find a buzzing student community - almost a quarter of the Oxford population are students.

So whether you’re looking for pubs, clubs, nature-filled walks, museums, galleries or just some really good food; you’ll definitely find the Oxford for you. Oxford also has some events and traditions that you won’t find anywhere else, so get involved and make the most of being in this inspiring city.

Brookes Union

Brookes Union exists to support, represent and inspire our students. It is a member led organisation and you will automatically become a member when you enrol at Oxford Brookes.

There are lots of Union services for you to take advantage of, including student societies, a safety bus, advice services and a system of student reps. We also run a range of exciting events, from film nights to meet the guide dogs.

 

Getting around

Our Oxford campuses are located around the city and are all connected to each other and the city centre by the BROOKESbus service. Harcourt Hill Campus is to the west of Oxford, Headington Campus is on the eastern side of the city and Wheatley Campus is in a village seven miles east of the city centre.

Within Oxford, the University operates across four sites (Harcourt Hill, Headington, Marston Road and Wheatley). The Headington Campus is the largest, on which the majority of programmes will have most of their teaching delivered. Some programmes are taught more frequently at the other sites (see course pages for more details), but all students may be required, at some point during their time at the University, to attend some teaching or assessment activities at any of the Oxford sites. There is a bus service that operates between sites in Oxford.
