About Us

In a bid to contribute its quota to the Nigerian University space fueled by the ruins of public universities in the Nation, Bingham University located in Karu, 26 kilometres away from the Federal Capital city of Nigeria, Abuja was founded in 2005 by the Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA). The founders had as a goal, the revitalization of the golden age of high quality and morally sound mission education up to the tertiary level. ECWA leaders and academics of ECWA extraction saw the need to establish a University that will provide a secular education anchored on sound moral values as provided for by the Christian faith. Recognizing the importance of the technological revolution of the 19th and 20th centuries, Bingham University is determined to build a technology-driven institution of the 21st century.

The University, since its establishment has continued to grow steadily with a current population of over 7,000 undergraduates and 2000 postgraduates.
