Warwick Prize for Writing

The Warwick Prize for Writing was an international literary prize, worth £25,000, that was given biennially for writing excellence in the English language, in any genre or form, on a theme that changes with every award.[1] It was launched by the University of Warwick in July 2008. Past nominations included scientific research, novels, poems, e-books and plays.[2] Works were open to be nominated by staff, students and alumni of Warwick University, and since 2014, the publishing industry.[1]
