The Americas
Building meaningful collaborations
Two Research Powerhouses.
Our academics work closely with counterparts in leading higher education institutions, industry partners and funding bodies across the Americas on a wide variety of projects in both research and education. We also aspire to attract the best and most talented international students and are pleased to welcome students from across the Americas every year.
Working together
At Warwick we are looking to expand our relationships and collaborations with leading institutions across the Americas. Below are just a few examples of our partnerships and initiatives.
University of
Toronto
Warwick has signed a Memorandum of Understanding which builds upon our shared ambition to broaden and deepen the collaborations between our staff and student communities. Together we are committed to uniting our shared areas of expertise to tackle the greatest challenges faced by people across the world.
Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais
We have a well-established and fruitful relationship with the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG), in Brazil. Every year, a number of Warwick students have the opportunity to attend UFMG's Summer School on Brazilian Studies (SSBS). For the first time, this year, UFMG students will participate in the International Conference of Undergraduate Research 2024, hosted by Warwick, in June.
Fulbright
Commission
Warwick has a close relationship with the Fulbright Commission and annually welcome scholars onto our postgraduate courses. Warwick is also proud that some of our academics have been funded by Fulbright to undertake research in the USA.
University of
Waterloo
We have a long-standing partnership, and Memorandum of Understanding, with the University of Waterloo, which includes joint research, student exchange and a double degree with the Balsillie School of International Affairs. The latest collaboration is between Esports experts and will see the two universities share best practice and collaborate on research and curriculum design.
Latin America at Warwick Network (LAWN)
The Latin America at Warwick Network (LAWN) connects an interdisciplinary group of scholars across the university whose research and teaching relates to Latin America. The strong tradition of Latin American research at Warwick, which dates back nearly to the University’s founding, has built a strong collective of scholars with interests in the region across the Humanities, Social Sciences, Business, and beyond.
University of
Michigan
In 2024, Warwick signed two Memorandums of Understanding with the University of Michigan: one between Michigan Engineering and WMG, and one between Michigan Medical School and WMS. These agreements recognise our complementarity in expertise and facilities, as well as synergies in our approach to research and education.

Hear from our international academic lead for North America
“We are committed to extending and enhancing our relationships with partners in North America, and to pursue opportunities for funding, education, and research collaboration. There are strong foundations on which to build; Warwick colleagues have been collaborating, innovating and sharing best practice with North American counterparts for many years across the spectrum of academic disciplines, attracting prestigious external funding and conducting pioneering research.
