University profile
Trinity University is a private, Christian-founded university licensed by the Federal Government of Nigeria in 2019. It was set up by the founders of Trinity International College (established 1995, now on an 83-acre site at Ofada, Ogun State) and Trinity Foundation School (Ofada, since 1996), with the aim of extending the same combination of academic rigour and character formation to the tertiary level. Its stated aim is to produce graduates who are well grounded in learning and character, and the university describes itself as value-driven at every level, from Governing Council to students.
Teaching currently takes place at the City Campus off Alara Street, near Queens College, Yaba, Lagos, where students resumed in April 2019. The planned Main Campus, of about 500 acres, is at Laloko, Owode Local Government Area, Ogun State, and is intended to host further faculties over time.
Academic work is organised in three faculties. The Faculty of Arts, Management and Social Sciences comprises the departments of Accounting, Business Administration, English and Literary Studies, Economics, Mass Communication, and Political Science (which also runs International Relations). The Faculty of Basic Medical and Applied Sciences houses Biological Sciences (Microbiology, Biology, Biotechnology), Chemical Sciences (Industrial Chemistry), Computer and Information Sciences (Computer Science, Information Technology), Medical Laboratory Science, and Physics with Electronics. Nursing Science is organised as the Faculty of Nursing Science. Degrees are the B.Sc., except B.NSc in Nursing Science, B.MLS in Medical Laboratory Science and the B.A. in English and Literary Studies.
The National Universities Commission (NUC) has accredited the university's programmes in stages: B.Sc. Microbiology, Computer Science, Information Technology and Mass Communication after a December 2021 exercise, and eight further programmes (Nursing Science, Medical Laboratory Science, Business Administration, Accounting, Economics, Political Science, International Relations and Marketing) after a visit in November and December 2022. The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (ICAN) has also accredited the accounting degree, and the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria has commended the nursing programme.
Student life is built around the halls of residence for male and female students, a medical centre with a pharmacy, the library with online databases, a learning management system and the Chaplaincy, which coordinates daily devotions, counselling and chapel services; chapel attendance is compulsory for students. The university runs an annual matriculation, an orientation programme for new students, a Student Week and a convocation, the fourth of which was held in 2026.
