Nile University Of Nigeria

Nile University of Nigeria (NUN) is a private, multidisciplinary university founded in 2009 in Abuja, Federal Capital Territory. It began operations with three faculties — Arts and Social Sciences, Engineering, and Natural and Applied Sciences — and just 93 students. The university established a School of Postgraduate Studies in 2014 and has since grown to eight faculties — Medical and Health Sciences, Arts and Social Sciences, Engineering, Environmental Sciences, Management Sciences, Natural and Applied Sciences, Computing Studies, and Law — offering over 90 programs to more than 13,000 students on its 113-hectare campus.

In 2020, Nile University joined Honoris United Universities, marking that pan-African private higher-education network’s first entry into West Africa. The university’s medical school partners with four hospitals, and Nile is accredited by professional bodies including ICAN, COREN, the Council of Legal Education, and the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria.
