St Catherine College Oxford

Academic
·Conference centre
·Unusual
·230 bedrooms
·18 meeting rooms

St Catherine’s College is the largest college within Oxford University and teaches both undergraduate and graduate students. Although one of the youngest Oxford Colleges, we can trace our roots back to 1868, when a ‘Delegacy for Non-Collegiate Students’ was formed. This Delegacy enabled students to gain an Oxford education without the prohibitive costs of college membership. This founding ethos of inclusion is still evident today, and the College has an open, friendly and diverse community amongst its Students, Fellows and Alumni. Our modern college, affectionately known as St Catz, was founded in 1962 by our Founding Master, Lord Alan Bullock. Designed by Danish architect, Arne Jacobsen, our Grade I listing buildings were the first to be granted such status in the post-war era. Jacobsen’s plans for the college did not include a chapel, defining us as a secular college and setting us apart from other Oxford colleges, most of which have a religious foundation. Whilst treasuring the traditional values of Oxford college life, we are committed to evolving with today’s society, which is reflected in our College motto ‘Nova et Vetera’: the new and the old.

St Edmund Hall

Queens Lane Oxford Oxfordshire, OX1 4AR

·7 meeting rooms

St Edmund Hall wishes to maximise the use of its facilities during the Oxford vacations and welcomes conferences, courses and summer schools, of any size, during mid-March to mid-April and from the end of June to October. Situated in the centre of the City of Oxford on the "High", a few steps from Christ Church Meadows and the Isis, the great Examination Schools, Radcliffe Camera, the Cathedral and the bustling shops of the "Broad", St Edmund Hall is well placed for sightseeing and shopping. St Edmund Hall was the first college to sense the need for conference facilities in Oxford, and our twenty years experience shows. Many of the facilities, the great Wolfson Hall and adjacent rooms were built with conferences and banquets in mind. Most of our conferences come back year after year, particularly for the "high table" cuisine, and the professionalism of the College staff, knowing that they can have a relaxed, yet stimulating break, enjoying the ancient quadrangle or relaxing in the former churchyard that is now the college garden.
