2013.
The Oxford University Exploration Club aims to help improve our knowledge of the world through overseas exploration by members of the university. Since our foundation in 1929, we have inspired and supported student-led expeditions to virtually every region of the world: however, there is still much to discover! We continue to foster the spirit of exploration in Oxford students by organizing weekly talks by accomplished explorers, providing advice on expedition planning, and encouraging networking between past and future explorers.
