Warwick Students’ Union benefits from its central location, right in the heart of the campus. The University of Warwick has once again been named as one of the UK’s top 10 universities in the Times and The Sunday Times Good University Guide. The 2019 guide ranks Warwick 10th overall and 8theighth for the quality of the research undertaken.

Helping you reach students at Warwick

The news follows shortly after Warwick was named by the QS World University Rankings as 10th in the UK and 54th in the world, the QS new 2019 ranking saw Warwick rising 10 places in the world since 2014. Earlier this year the Guardian 2019 University Guide named Warwick 8th in the UK and the Times Higher Education’s (THE) World Reputation Rankings placed Warwick in the world’s top 100. Our pre-arrivals and Welcome period, running from August through to late September, is the biggest and busiest time of the year on campus, with c.6,000 new students arriving and getting settled into University life. We’re in a great position to help you advertise your business, organisation or project – whatever your requirements, big or small, we can tailor packages to suit all.
