Trinity College
• founded in 1554, is one of the smaller colleges in terms of student numbers, but occupies an exceptionally spacious site in the centre of Oxford. The relationship between undergraduates and the academic staff is open and friendly. Excellent facilities and a strong sense of community provide an ideal environment for hard work and academic achievement.
• A wide range of clubs and societies with an academic focus are active within Trinity as well as sports and music clubs, including a large chamber orchestra.
Facilities such as libraries are provided on all these levels:by the central university,by the departmentsand by colleges
(all of which maintain a multi-discipline library for the use of their members).
