Info

19 Today, Wolfson College is home to Oxford’s largest community of postgraduate and postdoctoral researchers with more than 500 research students and nearly 100 postdocs. These students and postdocs are the experts of tomorrow. 66 Individually and collectively, they are working to address the world’s greatest challenges. Wolfson gives them a unique environment to do so, and your support can help their expertise to thrive. Through the Wolfson 1966 Fund we invite you to invest in the expertise of the future. As Oxford’s most international and family-friendly college, Wolfson is a special place in which to study, learn and live. But we want to do more to help our students and post-doctoral fellows thrive – and your support will be essential in doing this.
The Wolfson 1966 Fund will allow Wolfson to offer: • Scholarships to allow students to pursue research at Oxford, whatever their financial means. • Research and travel awards, enabling students to share their work at conferences or undertake essential lab- or field-work. • Hardship bursaries for students who encounter unexpected financial distress. • Assistance with nursery fees for students with children at Wolfson Nursery. • Better sports, welfare, and wellbeing facilities to support students’ physical and mental health, and to foster Wolfson’s special esprit de corps. • Enhanced library facilities, to ensure Wolfsonians have the latest resources they need. All donations to the Wolfson 1966 Fund will directly benefit the students and post-doctoral fellows who need it most. “Because of my scholarship, I’m able to study in one of the top institutes around the world, together with my first choice supervisor, on an extraordinary research project and the dream topic that I’d always imagined to work on during my DPhil.” Maribel Schonewolff Wolfson DPhil student in Biochemistry Marriott Graduate Scholar “My scholarship has made a huge impact on my life, not just because it allows me to study at Oxford and conduct research on the topic I’m most passionate about, but also because it really gives me the time to pursue my interests.” Syed Munim Husain Wolfson DPhil student in Psychiatry and Marriott Graduate Scholar 1966 Creation of Wolfson College 1974 Opening of the Linton Road site 1982 Purchase of the Meadows 1997 Renaming of the Berlin Quad 2008 Catherine Marriott student accommodation built 2016 50th anniversary and the Academic Wing completed 2021 Launch of the Wolfson 1966 Fund
