Right, I got things mixed up. Sorry, docker is out.

Apart from qemu/kvm, another alternative is VirtualBox. There is an Ubuntu 
package and a tutorial:
<https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/how-to-run-ubuntu-desktop-on-a-virtual-machine-using-virtualbox#1-overview>
There is also VMWare, and John's university might have support for it. VMWare 
is a commercial VM solution.
