Collaborate with us

Our students, staff and researchers benefit greatly from working with our local community – and in return, we're committed to making a positive difference to the people and businesses in our city and beyond.

Our partnerships in the local community include working with children in care and care leavers, the black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) communities and other under-represented groups to improve access to education. We also support military service children in Portsmouth, the home of the British Royal Navy. One of our biggest partnerships is with Portsmouth Football Club, which includes supporting the work they do through their charity, Pompey in the Community.

Organisations and individuals can collaborate with the University by taking part in or supporting our research and working with our students. Our Careers and Employability Service can also help you recruit skilled student volunteers, placement students on their sandwich year and new graduates.

You can work with us to develop your employees' skills too, through work-based learning courses, or grow your business by using our incubation services – from the coworking, hotdesking and private office spaces we offer, to mentoring programmes and networking events designed to help develop your business.
