Projects
The Oxford Scholars Programme offers an innovative approach to learning through project-based learning. During the programme, you will have the opportunity to work on one project under the guidance of an academic tutor, in a one-on-one setting. This hands-on experience will allow you to apply knowledge learnt during lectures in a practical context, culminating in a project proposal or report by the end of the programme.
