Open days give prospective students the opportunity to find out more about studying physics at Oxford. Selecting a university and a course is about finding a fit that is right for you and attending an open day will help you to make an informed decision. The main open days are normally scheduled for the end of June. In addition, there is an information day in September, offering a slightly compressed range of activities compared to the main open days. The open days will be held in the Martin Wood complex, Parks Road, OX1 3PU.

Information day: Friday 15 September 2023
