Benue State University was established by the Benue State Government with the enactment of the Benue State University Edict No. 1 of 1991. The University took off in the 1992/93 academic year with four faculties, namely, Arts, Education, Science and Social Sciences. Two Faculties, Law and Management Sciences came on stream in the 1993/94 academic year with Faculty of Enviromental Sciences in the 2014/2015 academic session. The Philosophy of Benue State University is to seek to mold the total being by developing the mind and imparting both theoretical and practical knowledge that encourage self reliance in the individual. The programmes of study and training have therefore been designed to assist the individual to understand, exploit, and if need be change his environment. Benue State University is to act as an agency for developing the complete person (morally, intellectually and physically) who would contribute to the growth of his social, cultural, political and economic environment and apply his skills to raise Benue State from poverty to prosperiity
