This paper considers the problem of steady two-dimensional boundary layer flow of a micropolar fluid near an oblique stagnation point on a fixed surface with Navier's slip condition. It is shown that the governing nonlinear partial differential equations admit similarity solutions. The resulting nonlinear ordinary differential equations are solved numerically using the Keller box method for some values of the governing parameters. It is found that the flow characteristics depend strongly on the micropolar and slip parameters.
