Why we exist
The Oxford Centre for Advanced Research was founded on the belief that access to world-class academic mentorship should not be limited by geography or background. We work with leading researchers and early-career academics to expand the reach and impact of ideas that matter.
Through the OCAR Academy, we empower high school and undergraduate students to produce genuine research under the guidance of faculty from Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard, MIT, and other leading institutions.
Through the OCAR Think Tank, we support early-career researchers in sharing their expertise with the broader public, through podcasts, essays, public lectures, and more.
OCAR was founded by a group of Oxford graduates committed to creating the same type of academic opportunity in research that they had benefited from during their own time at university. Add your organisation’s founding story here.
