ContentSWelcome,
Warwick is a highly accomplished, innovative, diverse and globally connected university, and our student population and curriculum reflect these key attributes. The distinctive student experience we offer and our strong reputation as one of the so-called English Ivy League universities mean that we are one of the most targeted universities in the UK for prospective students and graduate employers.
I hope that you, your parents and supporters enjoy the day and get a sense of our diverse, cosmopolitan and vibrant campus.
With best wishes, Professor Nigel Thrift Vice-Chancellor and President
A very warm welcome to our September Open Day...

Our tagline for this Open Day is ‘experience Warwick’ and that is what today is all about. We want you to get a genuine feel for what it is like to study and live at the University of Warwick and through our sessions or by talking to current students we hope to answer any questions you may have.
This guide outlines the timetable for the day, includes a campus map and details of the opportunities you will have to meet current students. We hope you find it useful.
