Doctoral
Values

As part of our Doctoral Values Project, we met with PGRs across many disciplines about their experiences of being a PGR at Warwick. For the next stage of the project, we would like input from an even wider audience. If you haven’t had a chance already please take a look at the VEVOX poll and let us know which values matter to you most.  
Your views make a difference

We want to hear from you. The Student Feedback Survey is now open, run in partnership with the Students’ Union. Your voice matters - tell us how Term 3 is going, and you could win 1 of 16 shopping vouchers!

Humans of Warwick

Enaya Nihal
President, Warwick SU


Today, we're highlighting the journey of your Warwick SU President, Enaya, who came to Warwick from Saudi Arabia in 2020 and, since graduating, has been dedicated to enhancing your student experience through initiatives like the Free Breakfast Club.

“I’d never been to the UK before, it took me four and a half hours to get through border control. I arrived on campus at 2am and couldn’t believe it was all real!”
