Students

Our students are curious, open-minded, ambitious and possess strong thought and people leadership qualities. Our courses and modules appeal to candidates who are eager to embrace and navigate complex problems through multiple disciplinary lenses and find solutions that are both creative and compassionate to the people that their designs impact.

As a design course rooted in sustainability, our students must be passionate about addressing global challenges, from human rights and environmental impact to technological advancements and social innovation. We seek students who are excited about leading in sustainable and regenerative design, who can think systemically, and who are driven to develop ethical and progressive solutions.

At the University of Warwick, we value individuals who are not only ready to learn but also prepared to actively contribute to shaping a more equal, prosperous, and sustainable future. If you have a commitment to holistic strategy, interdisciplinary collaboration and sustainable development, you will find a supportive and inspiring environment here.

The University of Warwick provides a lively and varied campus environment. You'll have plenty of opportunities to engage with culture, explore your interests, and meet a diverse group of like-minded friends. With over 250 societies and over 60 sports clubs, there really is something for everyone.

Don't just take our word for it, come and find out for yourself. Come and speak to department staff and current students, and see what possibilities await you.
