Born in the 60s, the University of Warwick has always been a forward-facing organisation and today is no different; we’re still here to point the way ahead.
Ranked 74th in the world and in the top 10 in the UK, Warwick is one of the world’s leading universities for teaching and research. With an absolute commitment to excellence and an ambition to challenge the status quo, we’ve inspired positive change, sparked innovation and created opportunity across our local community, our region, the country and beyond.
Our governing body, the University CouncilLink opens in a new window benefits from the diverse insights brought to it by its independent members who provide breadth of experience and profile across sectors and at international, national or regional level.
We are now seeking to recruit independent members to the Council, who share our values, who want to make a difference, as well as challenge and further stretch our ambition.
