It runs the SCIO semester programmes, SCIO summer programme, and SCIO Online from Oxford. More information on SCIO can be found at: www.scio-uk.org

Mission

SCIO strives to do this by:

  • Encouraging high quality research on the part of its staff and faculty from CCCU colleges as individuals and as members of research programmes based at SCIO
  • Cultivating a community of alumni who support each other and SCIO’s mission
  • Enabling its staff to develop professionally and flourish personally
