FUTO, as the Oldest University of Technology in Nigeria, was established in 1980 by Executive fiat with the composition and appointment of the first provisional Council by Nigeria’s First Executive President, Shehu Shagari. It became the first of three such Universities set up by the Federal Government of Nigeria who sought to establish a University of Technology in each geo-political region and particularly in a State which did not have a conventional University.
This school is group under FEDERAL UNIVERSITIES OF TECHNOLOGY by JAMB in Nigeria. For more information, visit the school website: www.futo.edu.ng
