The Federal University of Environment and Technology (FUET), Tai Town, Ogoniland, Rivers State, is one of Nigeria’s newest federal universities established to promote education and research in environmental science, sustainability, and technological innovation.
The university was officially established on 3 February 2025, when the President of Nigeria signed the bill creating the institution into law. The creation of FUET was part of the Federal Government’s efforts to address environmental challenges and expand access to higher education, particularly in the Niger Delta region.
The establishment of the university followed recommendations from the Ogoni Dialogue Committee, which proposed the institution as part of confidence-building measures between the Federal Government and the Ogoni people.
FUET has two campuses located at Koroma and Saakpenwa in Tai Local Government Area of Rivers State. The institution commenced academic activities in the 2025/2026 academic session, enrolling its first set of undergraduate students and offering multidisciplinary programmes focused on environmental restoration, sustainable development, and technological advancement.
