Located in the historic heart of Oxford, just a few minutes’ walk from the University’s libraries, science campus and humanities buildings, and with shops and restaurants on the doorstep, Jesus College combines the highest standards of academic excellence in teaching and research with a vibrant, inclusive and supportive community.

Our 650 undergraduate and graduate students come from a wide range of backgrounds, countries and cultures. We aim to attract the brightest minds, and are committed to raising aspiration and improving social mobility through a programme of bursaries and outreach.

Amongst our Fellows, Lecturers and Tutors are world-class academics focused on vital research to address the most pressing challenges of the 21st century, from the environmental and societal impact of climate change to new therapies to target diseases such as cancer.

At Jesus College we encourage innovation, interdisciplinarity and intellectual exchange in both teaching and research, enabling all our students and scholars to immerse themselves in their subject, share knowledge and engage with the greatest minds.
