Pembroke College is a historic and vibrant constituent college of the University of Oxford, located on Pembroke Square in central Oxford. It was founded in 1624 by King James I and named for William Herbert, 3rd Earl of Pembroke, a former Chancellor of the University and Lord Chamberlain. The college occupies beautiful grounds and supports a lively academic and social community, with a strong emphasis on inclusivity and interdisciplinary study.
Pembroke is affectionately dubbed “the pink college” owing to its mascot (the Pink Panther) and sports kit color.
