Oxford Brookes University started in 1865. It was initially called the Oxford School of Art, and the most big thing is that it was located in a single room on the ground floor of the Taylor Institution at St Giles', Oxford. In 1870, the college expanded a bit and the School of Science was added. With the start of 1891, the administration of the City Council's Technical Instruction Committee took the initiative to get the college renamed as the Oxford City Technical School, incorporating the School of Art, which had remained distinct. Plans were made towards relocating the former Blue Coat School for Boys on St. Ebbes.
In 1934, the college went through a major change as the School of Art and the Technical School were merged to form a single big college and John Henry Brookes, Head of the School of Art and Vice Principal of the Technical School, was appointed the first principal of the merged educational institution. By 1950 the college had admitted 4,000 students. A new campus was built on a site that was offered by the local Morrell brewing family. The college was then again renamed "Oxford College of Technology", when it opened on the new site in 1956. Its first residence hall was established in 1960 and the college was relocated to Headington in 1963.
In 1970, the college went through another name change. It was then named Oxford Polytechnic. In 1976, it gained for itself the former Lady Spencer-Churchill College, which had been established in Wheatley in August 1965, and in 1992 it incorporated the Dorset House School of Occupational Therapy, the first ever School of Occupational Therapy in the UK. Later in the year 1992, following enactment of the Further and Higher Education Act, it became Oxford Brookes University, becoming the only one of the new universities to be named after its founder. In 2000, it took over the site of Westminster College, Oxford. After getting this place, the University started basing its education and theological activities on the site. Theology was withdrawn in 2015.
In October 2003, Oxford Brookes University became the first university in the world to be awarded Fairtrade status.
Baroness Kennedy served as the university's Chancellor from 1993 to 2001. In 2007, Graham Upton retired as Vice-Chancellor and his successor, Janet Beer, was welcomes in September. In July 2008, Shami Chakrabarti, Director of Liberty, replaced Jon Snow as chancellor of the university.[12]
In March 2015 Alistair Fitt was welcomed as Vice-Chancellor, taking up  the jobs of Janet Beer. Dame Katherine Grainger British Olympic rower  then also replaced Shami Chakrabarti as Chancellor. Katherine is Britain's happens to be the most decorated female Olympic athlete and the first British woman to win medals at five successive games. (Rio 2016, London 2012, Beijing in 2008, Athens in 2004 and Sydney in 2000). She was made a Dame for her services to rowing and charity in the 2017 New Years Honours.
In 2015 Oxford Brookes University celebrated its 150th anniversary. A range of events,programs and activities took place including celebrations recognising John Henry Brookes, the university's modern founder. The first Founder's Day was held in May 2016.
