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.
