Autonomous vehicles are the future and have the potential to reshape how the world operates. The opportunity to work at a world leading department on my own campus was unmissable to me.

After finishing my Master’s degree at Warwick, I knew I wanted to stay in an academic environment yet build my links with industry. The WMG Graduate Development Programme offered that and was completely unique.

"Since starting the course, I have actually been promoted into one of our more senior engineering roles at Sellafield as a Principal Engineer. I feel the learning that I’ve had has helped me gain as a leader and more of a strategic thinker so I am now planning more towards a future mind-set rather than trying to firefight the problems of today."

"The Degree Apprenticeship has already had an impact on my career because I've gained four years' work experience at Thales. Not only have I been able to figure out what I do like in the workplace, but also what I don't like, and it means I can hit the ground running now that I've graduated."

"I am learning a lot that will make me a more complete leader that can operate at higher levels comfortably."

"The most useful thing that I have learnt is how to apply what I have learnt at university, to my work in my job. We learnt a lot of programming in our first year of university, so I have taken that knowledge to create programs to speed up tasks for my team at work. Being able to contribute to the team and make it more efficient is a great feeling.”

"Degree apprenticeships are a key building block for our talent strategy and very much for our talent pathways that we have in place for our technical leaders. I would recommend working with the University of Warwick to other businesses. We’ve had amazing support from the university and the university does have world class facilities.”

“By working with the University of Warwick and recruiting Digital Healthcare Apprentices we can ensure that data is comprehensively analysed and applied to positively impact the lives of many more people with autism – both at Prior’s Court and in the wider world of autism.”

“Our employees have benefited greatly from the Engineering Management programme so far, not just in terms of the content, but they have been able to swiftly apply their learnings directly into their current roles and have gone on to become involved in strategic project work.”

“For me, I think I do have the expectation that our students can enhance their communication ability by visiting this school by taking the class given by the professors and discuss about the projects or courses in class. I do hope that all the students can enjoy their time here because the campus is so beautiful and it will give them a very good impression. WMG is a building a bridge between research and application and is a blend of entrepreneurial spirit and the academic excellence of this university, it’s a good choice for them.”
