Project background
Oxford University is the oldest university in the English-speaking world, with a history that can be traced back to the end of the eleventh century. From 2017 to 2021, it ranked first in the world for five consecutive years. Oxford University has a strong faculty, with 83 members of the Royal Society and 125 academicians of the British Academy of Sciences. In the nearly 900 years of history, Oxford has cultivated many outstanding leaders in various fields, including 6 British kings, 28 British prime ministers, more than 50 Nobel Prize winners and a large number of world-renowned literature experts and scientists, leading the world's most cutting-edge scientific research in many fields.
The OPGDI of Oxford University has united with colleagues in the academic community to specially prepare online courses. They are carefully designed for outstanding students to encourage students to apply for Oxford University Registered Visiting Student Program (VSP), master’s program and doctoral research. This core course lasts for three weeks. There is also an Oxford University Tutorial System course, which requires a separate application.
