  We introduce a general framework allowing the systematic study of random
manifolds. In order to do so, we will put ourselves in a more general context
than usual by allowing the underlying probability space to be non commutative.
We introduce in this paper the oriented cobordism groups of random manifolds,
which we compute in dimensions 0 and 1, and we prove the surjectivity of the
corresponding Thom-Pontryagin homomorphism. Non commutative and usual
(commutative) random manifolds are naturally related in this setting since two
commutative random manifolds can be cobordant through a non commutative one,
even if they are not cobordant as usual random manifolds. The main interest of
our approach is that expected characteristic numbers can be generalized to the
non commutative case and remain naturally invariant up to cobordism. This
includes Hirzebruch signature, Pontryagin numbers and, more generally, the
expected index of random elliptic differential operators
