The Oxford University Computing Laboratory (OUCL) is the computer science department at Oxford University in England. It was originally set up under the direction of Leslie Fox in 1957. The research at the OUCL is classified into seven broad themes:

  • Computational Biology
  • Foundations, Logic and Structures
  • Information Systems
  • Programming Languages
  • Software Engineering
  • Verification

The Computing Service for the University was split off in 1977. It moved from Banbury Road to 8–11 Keble Road opposite Keble College, with the Wolfson Building, expanding the accommodation significantly behind the original row of Victorian buildings in 1993. For many years, OUCL was led by Sir Tony Hoare, who initiated the computer science undergraduate course at Oxford University. Since 2003, the Director is Professor Bill Roscoe.
