New and returning graduate students, I warmly welcome you to The University of the West Indies (The UWI).
The most reputable ranking agency, Times Higher Education (THE) has consistently ranked The UWI among the top universities, globally. The UWI is the only Caribbean-based university to enjoy such international recognition since its debut in the rankings in 2018. Graduate education is a critical and crucial contributing factor to this success, and your commitment and studies are integral to both the continued success of this regional institution, as well as the positive transformation of yourselves, your communities, and your nations.
As graduate students in your specialised areas, you are among the over 10,000 postgraduate students enrolled at The UWI, acquiring and developing new skills, technologies, knowledge, and innovation to enhance the sector/industry of which you are a part, and ultimately, the quality of life of the citizens in our region and beyond. However, don’t be daunted by this huge expectation; as you will have the support of your very talented fellow students and our faculty members.
