Warwick has been awarded the prestigious Institution of the Year Award at the UKCISA #WeAreInternational Awards 2025, where the finalists and winners were selected from over 420 nominations from 120 institutions. Warwick supports 13,500 international students from more than 145 countries and was commended for its exceptional commitment to enhancing the global student experience.

UKCISA praised the emphasis on global engagement and student experience from the Warwick’s 60th anniversary international programme. They also highlighted the associated One World Warwick campaign, which last year reached more than 5,500 participants across 23 countries. This year, the One World Warwick initiative celebrates 60 years of global engagement, offering a platform for students to share their heritage and talents with the wider community.
