- Studying at the University of Portsmouth has been a largely positive experience for me.
- I really value the strong industry focus of my course, especially in Sports Management, as it feels practical and geared towards employability rather than just theory.
- The lecturers are generally approachable and supportive, and the facilities, particularly the library and sports spaces, are modern and well-equipped. I also like the fact that everything is within walking distance, which makes it easy from going to place A to B.
Dislikes
- However, there are a few downsides. As a city university, it lacks a traditional enclosed campus feel.
- The weather can be quite windy and grey, and the social scene can occasionally feel limited compared to bigger cities.
- Overall, though, the positives outweigh the negatives for me.
- In my first year, I found my accommodation via the Uni portal. I now stay in a studio close to all the Uni buildings, which I found out about while being here. There are companies/brokers you can view houses with and stay with your friends.

- The university also offers a variety of cultural activities.
Dislikes

Likes
- Faculties provide optimum support to students in achieving top results.
Dislikes
- They separate international students from local students. It means that batches are different for international and local students.
I had less percentage in my bachelor's, so I had to clear the pathway program to start my actual course. So I completed my pre masters which lasted for 3 months. Overall, the University is good. They have their name in UK markets. The value of UOP graduates is higher compared to other average universities.

- I like that the faculty is so helpful at every stage.
Dislikes
- I dislike that the buildings are so far and spread out in the whole city.
I already have a masters in Education from back in India & have also read the papers of my professors, that was my main encouragement to interact with such intellectual people. I wanted to do a specialized master's program further so chose MSc Educational Leadership and Management which was my elective subject earlier and was one of my top-scoring subjects as well.

- Optimal opportunity to interact with people who are either working at the big corporate level or in government projects such as the UN. Also, I got the opportunity to visit on different excursions and know more about places and cultures.
I chose this university because of multiple factors and for me the most important factor was the course modules and curriculum since I had worked in the corporate field in India and I found this course very much in line with my future goals.

- University of Portsmouth is the leading university for it's School of Criminal Justice Studies, with faculty that work alongside Interpol, FBI, other international security organisations. I chose this university because of the variety of modules they offer, the lecturers who taught them - some of whose work I have read during my undergraduate course, and the overall reviews about the University. The fact that Portsmouth is a coastal city with most amount of sun in England was also important in my decision-making after spending the previous three years in cold gloomy climate which had an unforeseen effect on my overall health.
- I loved in-class discussions for the theoretical modules and the practical sessions for the investigation module specifically where we got a chance to test our skills and knowledge and got feedback that made learning more effectively.
Dislikes
- There's nothing I particularly disliked about the University. I was studying at a time where the whole world was trying to adapt to the changes brought about by covid so I did not get to experience a lot of in-person events that pre-covid and current students have the opportunity to attend.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time at University of Portsmouth because the course content had everything I had ever wanted to study and the faculty were very helpful and encouraging.
One of my friend suggested me this college. He stated that the faculty was amazing and also all the facilities the we required are well and good. The also the main reason is that this particular university has the course that I want to persue which is Max engineering management Head the u had awesome teachers for this course and also I chose that university as i like that place
