The Polish University Abroad, or Polish University in Exile (Polish: Polski Uniwersytet na Obczyźnie, abbreviated PUNO), was initially established in London in 1949 (de facto 1952).

The Polish University Abroad has a B.A. programme and does research. It has outposts in Paris, France, and Munich, Germany.

PUNO is based at the Polish Social and Cultural Centre in Hammersmith, London. The nearest underground station is Ravenscourt Park (District line).
