In a major stride toward elevating the standard of higher education in Pakistan, Roots IVY College of Management Sciences proudly announces its academic collaboration with the University of Portsmouth, UK — a globally recognized and HEC-approved institution. This strategic alliance ushers in a new era of transnational education, enabling Pakistani students to pursue world-class undergraduate and postgraduate pathways right from their home country.
This partnership represents more than just another international affiliation — it’s a meaningful step toward democratizing access to global academic excellence, creating opportunities for students across Pakistan to study a globally benchmarked curriculum from one of the UK’s most respected universities.
The University of Portsmouth is known for its excellence in teaching, inclusivity, employability outcomes, and real-world learning experiences. Ranked among the Top 150 Young Universities in the World by Times Higher Education, and a 5-Star QS-rated university, it consistently meets the highest global academic standards. Now, through Roots IVY, these standards are being brought directly to Pakistani classrooms.
Students enrolling in these programs will receive an academic experience equivalent to studying in the UK — with identical course content, rigorous assessment standards, and world-recognized qualifications. With HEC recognition already in place, graduates will be equipped with credentials that hold weight both locally and globally, enhancing their career mobility and postgraduate opportunities.
At the core of this partnership lies a shared commitment to preparing students not just for academic excellence, but for real-world success. The programs offered under this collaboration are designed to align with industry needs, fostering critical thinking, innovation, and global business awareness. Whether students aim to work in multinational corporations, launch startups, or continue into research and further studies, the skillset developed through these degrees positions them competitively on the global stage.
This academic partnership is further enriched by the University of Portsmouth’s strong affiliations with a leading UK football club. At Roots IVY, this unique sports connection introduces students to a learning environment that integrates wellness, teamwork, leadership, and discipline — values rooted deeply in both academic and athletic success.
By creating holistic academic spaces that encourage both intellectual and physical development, Roots IVY is redefining the higher education experience in Pakistan. The inclusion of sports science, management, and wellness within the academic ecosystem brings an added dimension of learning — one that resonates with today’s dynamic, multidisciplinary world.
Historically, access to a UK degree often came with a heavy price tag and the emotional cost of relocating away from family and community. This collaboration changes that equation. By studying University of Portsmouth programs through Roots IVY in Pakistan, students now have the chance to:
It’s not just a cost-effective alternative — it’s a smarter, more accessible path to international success.

As the world becomes more interconnected, the demand for globally competitive education is higher than ever. This collaboration between the University of Portsmouth and Roots IVY offers the perfect blend of international prestige, local accessibility, and academic rigor — an unbeatable combination for students seeking to thrive in the 21st-century knowledge economy.
