Visiting departments
Visiting subject departments gives you a real insight into the detail and structure of the degree courses offered at Oxford. Open day programmes often include admissions talks, mock lectures, mock interviews, tours of the department and an opportunity to meet tutors and current students. They are particularly recommended for science applicants as much of their teaching takes place in the department. The University open days in 2013 will be 26 June, 27 June and 20 September.
As well as participating in the University open days, some departments also hold individual open days and other events at different times throughout the year. For more information please see:
Unfortunately, departments are not generally open to visitors on other occasions. However, it is normally possible for potential students to visit other areas of the University and have a look around college grounds.
You are of course always very welcome to contact us, or visit our Admissions Information Centre.
