Introduction
Oxford Brookes University is a public research university in Oxford, England, descended from the Oxford School of Art founded in 1865 (later Oxford Polytechnic) and granted university status in 1992, named for John Henry Brookes, a pioneer of modern higher education. Its Headington campus leads internationally in architecture, hospitality and publishing, with strong business and motor-sport engineering programmes. Libraries, performance halls and sports centres are thoroughly modern, and the leafy Headington and Wheatley campuses feel green and open. Distinct from the ancient university across town, Brookes shows Oxford's other face — young, practical and international — with the lively shops and cafes of Headington village on its doorstep.
