Find out what delegates from Spring School 2025 thought about their experience:

 

"The instruction during the Spring School is effective, providing for a surprising amount of learning in only a single week.  The Spring School community is also very positive, diverse and engaged.  This is truly a great learning environment.” 

 

Jeremy Farris

 

"Oxford Spring School was an incredible experience—an opportunity to engage with cutting-edge research methods in an intellectually stimulating and supportive environment. The faculty and fellow participants created a vibrant learning community, and the setting couldn’t have been more inspiring. I came away with both new skills and valuable connections.”

 

Francesca Papa

 

"The Spring School was a truly unique experience for me, for two main reasons. First, it allowed me to engage deeply with the field of machine learning, which is rarely covered in depth during academic education. My lecturer delivered the material with such enthusiasm and passion that it was an absolute pleasure to follow his teaching, motivating me even further to explore machine learning in greater depth. 

 

"Second, I found it both inspiring and enriching to experience the atmosphere of the University of Oxford and to exchange ideas with fellow participants from across disciplines and backgrounds. I would also like to extend my sincere thanks to the organising team for the smooth running of the event."
