Oxford University was founded in the 12th century. It is one of the largest and the most ancient universities of England. Oxford University is a collection of colleges, each self-governing and independent. The University is merely an administrative body, which organizes lectures, arranges examinations, grants degrees, etc. Oxford University consists of 25 independent colleges, including four colleges for women.

The administrative body of the University consists of the chancellor and two proctors. The chancellor is elected for life. The vice-chancellor in practice is the head of the University, and is appointed annually by the chancellor. The job of the proctors is to maintain discipline.

The University has laboratories and research institutes, in all branches of science and engineering, and well-equipped libraries.

As a rule, admission to Oxford University is to a certain extent restricted. Students have to pay for their tuition, examinations, living accommodations, the use of libraries, laboratories, etc. Very few students hold scholarships. Oxford University is known for its tutorial system. Every student has a tutor who practically guides him through the whole course of studies. Each week the student goes to his tutor, and they discuss the work he has done.

A characteristic feature of Oxford University is that many traditions of the Middle Ages are still current there.

Many eminent world-known scholars and scientists have been educated at Oxford.
