We spoke to Raaghav about studying at Oxford and what a career in Engineering has been like so far.

All that processing power generates lots of heat, so data centres must keep cool to prevent damage. Permanently shadowed lunar craters contain water ice but are difficult to image. An AI algorithm now provides sharper images, allowing us to see into them with high resolution for the first time. Nadja Yang is a Rhodes Scholar and student at Keble College pursuing a DPhil in Systems Engineering, where she conducts research on the Urban Bioeconomy, a concept to help cities become more sustainable and productive in terms of its biological resources.

Corinne is a Senior Mechanical Engineer for Dyson, previously working on electric vehicles and now on personal care products and sustainability projects. We spoke to Corinne to find out more about her engineering career so far. Hypersonics is the study of very fast and highly energetic flows encountered by space vehicles, planetary probes and air-breathing engines called scramjets. The aim is to identify the total potential for sequestration in the South African mining sector.

A team of researchers at the Oxford Robotics Institute are developing solutions for legged robots to be able to perceive their environment and make intelligent decisions to move from one point to the other. The majority of software licences and associated media is distributed via the IT Services Shop. The column "obtain From" in the table above shows any exceptions. To obtain software for use on a computer that is owned by yourself, you must present your University Card.

Users buying software on behalf of a department or college should bring a departmental or college order and their software card number. Some software is obtained by individual departments of the University, not in IT Services. IT Services manage a variety of software agreements, available to the various parts of the University depending on the type of agreement and funding model.

Some additional software agreements have been taken out by individual departments with usage rights for the whole University. The list above shows the general availability for each software product and is intended to show all software generally available throughout the University.

Your personal entitlement will depend on the status shown on your University Card which will be verified when software is purchased via the IT Services Shop. Skip to main content.
