University of Portsmouth
Portsmouth is the university that sees you as you are: one-of-a-kind. When you join our friendly community, you won’t be expected to fit into a mould. Instead, we’re here to help you become even more you.
Our degrees are designed to give you the skills, knowledge and confidence you need to make your life anything you want it to be. Wherever you’re coming from, we’ll help you get to where you want to be.
Portsmouth is lively beaches and vivid street art. It’s rich in naval history and buzzing with indie start-ups. It’s a city alive with possibility.
And getting to and from Portsmouth couldn’t be easier. There are 3 stations close to our campus and popular residential areas. We’re well connected to London and other major cities by train and coach.
Within a 10-minute walk from campus, you’ll find miles of beaches with two original Victorian piers. Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. Major music, theatre and comedy venues. And Gunwharf Quays designer outlet with bars, restaurants, cinema and bowling alley. No wonder YouGov surveys in 2022 found Portsmouth to be one of the UK’s top 10 most popular cities.
