</div> Templeton College is one of the constituent colleges of the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom. It is an all-graduate college, concentrating on the recruitment of students in business and management studies. It is one of the least wealthy colleges with an estimated financial endowment of £5m (2003).
The college was founded in 1965 as the Oxford Centre for Management Studies. It was renamed Templeton College in 1983 as a result of a donation from Sir John Templeton, in honour of his parents, Harvey Maxwell and Vella Handly Templeton. Initially a "society of entitlement" in the University, Templeton College began admitting graduate students in 1984 and became a full graduate college of the University by Royal Charter in 1995. In November 2005, the College transferred its executive education business to the Saïd Business School.
