BOUT US

Warwick is a leading university, somewhere forward-looking and ambitious, where the starting point is always ‘anything is possible’. We consistently perform strongly in the UK league tables, and we are proud to be among the top 20 ‘Most International’ universities in the world*. We’re as respected for boundary-breaking research as for teaching and business collaborations - our pursuit of excellence and intellectual curiosity is tireless. We strive to lead rather than follow, and are renowned for our entrepreneurialism and cosmopolitan outlook. Founded in 1965, our university has grown from a few green fields into 750 acres of world-class academic departments, serene lakes and leafy woodland. We now have over 25,000 students and over 5,500 members of staff and are consistently ranked in the top ten of the media league tables in the UK. Extending way beyond lecture theatres, seminar rooms, and the library, Warwick’s campus is a diverse and exciting community in its own right.

Warwick’s Institute of Advanced Studies launched in 2007 and the Institute of Advanced Teaching and Learning was launched in 2010. The Warwick Digital Laboratory was opened by Prime Minister Gordon Brown in July 2008. In 2009, the Arts Centre’s Butterworth Hall underwent a £8million development, and we made extensive improvements to the Students’ Union, building extra retail space, cafes, bars and performance areas. campus of the University is situated on

In 1979, the former Coventry College of Education merged with the University to form what is now the Institute of Education on the Westwood site. 1990s During the 1990s, the built campus continued to develop. Between 1993 and 2000 over £100m of new buildings were erected, notably the construction of the Arthur Vick, Claycroft and Lakeside Residences, the International Manufacturing Centre (1994), the Ramphal Building (1996), and the new Medical School Building and associated Biomedical Research facilities generously funded by the Wolfson Trust and through a successful appeal (2001).

Our Campus:Developments

We’ve been working on our plan to develop our campus over the next 5 years with our need to remain world-class in mind. It’s a plan that involves many interrelated parts – new buildings, replacing old buildings, transport and infrastructure improvements and more. Here are some key features of our plans and proposals for the next five years:
