Yes, students studying at Oxford can work with studies, but there is limit on working hours allowed per week.

International students are allowed to work 20 hours a week, but must not exceed that number in any given week even if they work lesser hours during different week, to avoid getting into trouble with relevant authorities which can lead to financial penalties or in some cases, revocation of student visa.
