We’re a world-leading university with the highest academic and research standards. But we’re not letting the story end there. That’s because we’re a place of possibility. We’re always looking for new ways to make things happen. Whether you’re a dedicated student, an innovative lecturer, or an ambitious company, Warwick provides a tireless yet supportive environment in which you can make an impact. And our students, alumni, and staff are perpetually making an effect – the kind that alters lives, whether close to home or on a global scale. It’s the achievements of our people that help explain why our levels of research excellence and scholarship are recognized internationally. It’s a prime attraction for some of the biggest names in worldwide business and industry. It’s why we’re ranked highly on the lists of great UK and world universities. All of this contributes to a compelling story, one that’s little more than 50 years old. But who said youth should hold you back from changing the world?

What we stand for

Our principles below set out our values and expectations of how we behave as a University community, both as individuals and as an institution. We commit to sharing these principles with all new students and staff members when they arrive at Warwick and underpin our desire to give students the best experience possible whilst studying here. They facilitate an environment where the ability to voice ideas is at its core, a place in which staff and students operate with mutual respect, with the confidence that equality of opportunity is accessible to all. These principles represent our expectations of how we behave as a University Community, both as individuals and as an institution. They also inform our approach to taking appropriate action when these expectations are not met.
