Welcome to Benue State University Website. The University has come a long way. From a student population of 306 and an academic staff strength of 149 at the inception of the University in 1992. Benue State University had a student enrolment of over nineteen thousand in 2006 and an academic staff strength of 429. The numbers have further grown since then.

This tremendous increase in staff strength and student enrolment can be attributed to handwork and determination of staff and students, and the continuous financial support of the Benue State Government. Concomitantly, our academic programmes have also expanded over the years. We now have seven faculties and a College of Health Sciences. Altogether we have 22 Departments.
Our graduate programmes have also come a long way. From an initial nineteen programmes, we now have fifty graduate academic programmes spread across all the faculties.
