Universities in Nigeria

List of Federal Universities in Nigeria

List of Federal Universities in Nigeria. Nigeria is organised into 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory. As a result of the oil boom years of the 1970s, the tertiary level of education was expanded to reach every sub-region of Nigeria. The federal and state governments were previously the only bodies licensed to operate universities. Recently, licenses have been granted to individuals, corporate bodies and religious bodies to establish private universities in the country.

See the most comprehensive list of accredited Federal Universities in Nigeria, which offers diverse Certificate, Diploma, Degree and Graduate Courses.
