The driving force for this has been mainly economic. It is assumed that the more people who study at degree level, the more likely the country are to succeed economically. The higher education sector provides a variety of courses up to degree and postgraduate degree level, and careers out research. All universities in England and Wales are state universities (this includes Oxford and Cambridge).of English universitiescome the ancient universities of Oxford and Cambridge that date from the 12th century and that until 1828 were virtually the only English universities. Oxford and Cambridge are composed of semi-independent colleges, each college having its own staff, know as Fellows. Most colleges have their own dining hall, library and chapel and contain enough accommodation for at least half of their students. The Fellows teach the students, either one-to-one or in very small groups (called tutorials in Oxford and supervision in Cambridge), the tutorial method brings the tutor into close and personal contact with the student.1970 all Oxford colleges were single-sex (mostly for men).

At all of them teaching is organized along the lines of the continental traditions - there is less specialization than at Oxford.second group of universities comprises various institutions of higher education, usually with technical study, that by 1900 had sprang up in new industrial towns and cities such as Birmingham, Manchester, Sheffield and Leeds. They got to be known as civic or redbrick universities. Their buildings were made of local material, often brick, in contrast to the stone of older universities, hence the name, redbrick. These universities catered mostly for local people. At first they prepared students for London University degree, but later they were given the right to award their own degrees, and so became universities themselves. In the mid-20th century they started to accept students from all over the country.third group consists of new universities founded after
