About Us

The vision and mission of United Bible University are spiritual, as such the courses are specially designed to build men and women of God. We abhor discrimination, nepotism, tribalism and anything that will make a man or a group of people feel unwanted or unloved as our students are drawn from all walks of life, namely, mechanics, electricians, businessmen, doctors, nurses, lawyers, engineers, accountants, the military, police force, teachers, civil servants, church workers, house wives, et-cetera. We encourage the fulfilment of the Law of God, which Jesus described as love for God and love for fellow human beings.

United Bible University, a non denominational University, was founded on Saturday October 22, 1994, by Professor Augustus Olakunle Macaulay, an advocate of Christian religion, a theologian, a Bible Scholar, and a renowned Bible teacher. The University is the educational arm of Christian Soul-Winners Worldwide Inc. which was registered with the Federal Republic of Nigeria. United Bible University, laden with the responsibility of providing higher educational opportunities for self-motivated achievers practically seeks high educational qualities, ingenuity, creativity combined with thoroughness. Thus, the University is conscious that accomplished

individuals with well-informed and flexible minds require an educational structure designed exclusively for practising men and women of God.

As already mentioned, the University is a non- denominational higher Institution that embraces all Christians irrespective of their race, nationality, colour, ethnic origin, sex, age, profession and status.

United Bible University is not a place where people are trained to become Christians but rather a place where Christian leaders are trained to elitism. In the college men and women of God are trained with efficiency, integrity and skill and sent forth to go and lead the world to Christ. Hence, the offer of high quality, comprehensive and up-to- date Christian, biblical, theological programmes and 24 hours (around the clock) instructor support.

The University is a federation of five colleges which include:

• Trinity College of Theology • Soul-Winners College of Divinity

• Clement Adeyemo College of Christian Education

• Moses Iloh Preachers College

• Christian Career College

The University campus is strategically located in quiet surroundings at 36/38, Yakoyo Road, Ojodu-Ikeja, Lagos State and boasts of a conducive-learning environment. Ojodu is a dynamic and prosperous new town in Lagos State with an impressive infrastructure of transportation and communication, modern industrial development and newly established technology based enterprises. It is a safe place to live, work and travel around.

UBU has ample car parking spaces and Julius Berger Main Bus Stop is a five minute drive away. UBU is fifteen minutes drive from Alausa Ikeja, Lagos State Government seat and only twenty minute drive from Murtala International Airport – the biggest airport in Africa. The main entrance to the college is right in front of Ojodu Yakoyo Market.

The body responsible for approvals is Association of Christian Theologians (ACTS)

United Bible University’s major educational aim is to provide courses of study and research of high standing from certificate to higher degrees. The courses are specially designed for individuals who are sufficiently motivated to make up a demanding and challenging commitment in order to realise the ideals and aspirations of Christian religion to its fullness.

The University lays emphasis on the quality of its courses of study and research, and constant improvement of its courses of study and research.

Professional and ministerial courses are designed for men and women who want to go into church work full time.

Effective Christian and ministerial training is done by Moses Iloh Preachers College that provides credible evangelists, pastors, church planters, missionaries, prayerists, church managers and administrators for church consumption.

Academic Council; This is the highest policy making in United Bible University.

Academic Advisory Council; Academic Advisory Council members are experienced people from relevant professional bodies appointed to advise academic council.

Academic Board Of Education; The Board has the responsibility of developing, directing, regulating and standardising education of all courses in the University.

The Academic Manager who is also a member of the board is ultimately responsible for all activities on the campus. Most of the day-to-day running of the University is delegated to other members of staff.

Most of the faculty acts as supervisors but they are responsible to the Academic Manager for the well-being of students in their group.

Student Executive Council; This Council exists to represent the interest of and enhance the life of all students at United Bible University. It promotes the activities of the students, supports and supplements the programmes of the University.

There is academic and non-academic staff.

In addition to day to day contact with academic and administrative staff, each student receives individual advice from his or her personal tutor or supervisor who is available for consultations throughout the academic year.

United Bible University boasts of a teaching staff that is made up of qualified and experienced men and women from a wide range of disciplines. Some of the members of the faculty have internationally recognized Outreach Ministries, as such they tap from their wide-range international experience.

In United Bible University, the lecturer is a specialist and an expert in the subject he/she is handling. A lecturer in theology is an expert in the same and handles just that; a Biblical History lecturer is an expert and specialist in the same. The lecturer that handles Divinity cannot mix it up with Theological Science or History but is a specialist of Divinity.

The staff provide advice about course organization, module, choice, study skills and learning resources and other helps as need demands.
