University of Portsmouth is a public university in Portsmouth, Hampshire, tracing its roots to 1869 and gaining full university status in 1992 after decades as Portsmouth Polytechnic. Around 28,000 students, roughly 12% international from 100-plus countries, study on a compact waterfront campus known for pharmacy, computer science, cyber security (home to the 40-academic Centre for Cybercrime and Economic Crime), civil engineering, Portsmouth Business School and its Institute of Marine Sciences.
Portsmouth's compact, largely pedestrianised city-centre campus sits a short walk from the historic waterfront and Spinnaker Tower, with teaching buildings, the University Library and halls of residence within about 10-15 minutes' walk of one another. Around 28,000 students study across the university, roughly 12% of them international from more than 100 countries. Facilities include the £2 million Institute of Marine Sciences aquarium and laboratory suite on Langstone Harbour, a dedicated Cyber Security and Digital Forensics Laboratory, and the Centre for Simulation in Health and Care used by Pharmacy and health students.

University-managed halls range from standard self-catered rooms from around £115 a week (e.g. Trust Hall) to catered en-suite rooms up to about £197 a week, with most contracts running roughly 40 weeks and gas, electricity, heating, water and basic contents insurance included in the price. Portsmouth's wider private rental market supplements university halls; specific room types, deposits and current-year prices should be confirmed directly with the university's accommodation office, since rates and availability vary by hall.
