We’re a new breed of university, doing things differently. And it’s working.
 
The Economist has ranked the University of Portsmouth as the UK’s number one for boosting graduate salaries. The Guardian Guide says we’re a Top 25 UK university.
 
A record number of our graduates are in work after completing their degrees. The annual Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education (DLHE) survey showed 97.5 per cent of 2017 graduates were in employment or further study within six months.
 
At Portsmouth, you can expect more than academic excellence. You’ll discover outstanding opportunities. From work placements and volunteering, to a dedicated careers service and amazing facilities like our TV studio and replica courtroom, we aim to help you become more employable.

We believe your education is supercharged by collaboration with businesses and organisations you want to work with in the future. So we develop many of our courses in partnership with employers. Current partners include Bloomberg, BAE Systems, Land Rover BAR, QinetiQ, Airbus and the Royal Navy.
 
Many of our staff come from industry or relevant professions, too. Which means you can make the most of their real-life experience and contacts.
 
You’ll learn, collaborate and grow in new ways at Portsmouth.
