College Reuben College was established as a graduate society of Oxford University in 2019, and is named in recognition of a generous founding gift from the Reuben Foundation. Admitting its first 130 students in October 2021, the College is dedicated to fostering interdisciplinary exchange within an inclusive and impact-oriented academic community. In its first years, the College’s academic interests cluster around four themes, one each from the University’s four Divisions: Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Environmental Change, Cellular Life, and Ethics & Values. From the start of the 2023/24 academic year, the College will be based in newly refurbished premises in the former Radcliffe Science Library, adjacent to the Museum of Natural History in Parks Road. The College has a single accommodation block for c. 100 students. Increasing its supply of student accommodation is one of the College’s priorities. Over the next 5 years, the number of students will increase to 650 full and part-time students studying for both Masters and DPhil degrees, and the long-term staffing structure will be established. The College is a Graduate Society of the University and as such is governed by its financial policies and procedures, including its banking and payroll functions. The College’s financial transactions are recorded in the University’s Oracle Financials System which also drives its financial reporting. The College’s annual budget and quarterly forecasts are prepared in the University’s Budgeting & Forecasting Tool. In addition, the College operates a number of its own systems which facilitate student payments on tuition fees, rental and other charges. In the medium term, the College is planning to become an independent entity, established by Royal Charter, akin to the other 38 colleges of Oxford University. Independence will necessitate a major review of the College’s financial systems and procedures, and it will no longer be governed by central University regulations and procedures.
