En akademikergrupp vid Oxfords universitet har just lanserat Woolf University, som inte kommer att ha några undervisningslokaler eller andra studiefaciliteter. Studenter och akademiker kommer att att mötas via en app för en till en eller en till två handledartillfällen.
Woolf University will not have lecture halls or studying facilities. Students and professors will meet through an app to arrange one-to-one or one-to-two tutorial sessions.
