About Us

About Us.

Established in 2014

OxRAM initially started as the Oxford 3D printing society and comprised of a couple 3D-printing enthusiasts studying material science and engineering. In 2017, we added the robotics wing to the society. In 2019, we transformed from a 3d-printing, workshop-based society to a robotics, project-based society.

OxRAM has a long history of rapid transformation and we aim to continue changing and evolving in the same way the tech industry rapidly grows and evolves.

Our Goal

"We aim to be the largest tech society in the UK.

In 2014, we started with less than 30 members and since then have grown to have over 500 members, comprising of both undergraduate and graduate students studying a vast variety of subjects.

We aim to harness the student "out-of-the-box" spirit to create new and exciting developments in tech

Our Team

Oliver Brewster
President

I study engineering science at Hertford College. I have spent several years tinkering with 3D printers and electronics and am excited to be working with society members on some new projects. I look forward to meeting everyone in
upcoming society events.
