University of Warwick accreditation
A wide range of our undergraduate and postgraduate degree courses, as well as some higher level apprenticeships, are accredited and awarded by the University of Warwick, a prestigious Russell Group university ranked 9th in the UK by The Guardian 2024 league table.
Building on our academic excellence, this means that these courses are developed by us and delivered in our world-class facilities at University College Birmingham, but graduates will receive their final awards from the University of Warwick.
In The Times and The Sunday Times Good University Guide 2022, the University of Warwick was named University of the Year for Teaching Quality, as well as being ranked runner-up in the University of the Year category.
