One World Warwick
Welcome to One World Warwick!
Throughout November, our campus will unite with global university partners and alumni communities worldwide to celebrate Warwick’s international community, connections, opportunities, and impact. This is a fantastic chance for staff and students to warmly welcome new members from around the world into our community, explore and experience the diverse cultures that make Warwick such a vibrant and dynamic place, and celebrate our own unique backgrounds, traditions, and interests. It also offers the chance to learn more about the fantastic array of global opportunities available at Warwick.
I look forward to meeting many of you at the upcoming events and encourage you to participate in as many as you can as part of #OneWorldWarwick. Don’t forget to use the hashtag on social media to share your experiences with us!
