The entire Management and Staff of Bowen University would like to thank the outgoing Deputy Vice Chancellor, Professor John Akande for an outstanding service during his tenure with the school. We wish him good luck in his future endeavors.
Bowen University was named after the late Rev Thomas Jefferson Bowen an American missionary who pioneered Baptist mission work in Nigeria in 1854.
Bowen University has graduated about 12000 Bowenians who are doing great things all over the world.
Our Mission is centred on creating a conducive and dynamic teaching, learning and research environment, that gives Bowenians a Christ like character, positive attitude and sterling leadership qualities.
Bowen University has zero tolerance for anything that maligns the mission statement of the University.
Since the current administration took over, it has been a story of transformation, repositioning, rebranding with attendant accomplishment, in the history of the university.
Bowen University has changed its business model, from the Faculty model to the new and modified Collegiate system as part of the many expectations of the new strategic plan of the University.
The modified collegiate system is premised on a decentralised administrative structure. It uses the place of College, instead of Faculty, and Programs in place of Courses.

In the area of infrastructural development, we have complied with the 21st Century approach to technologically driven infrastructure. On Tuesday September 25, 2018 we laid the foundation of 288 Bedrooms. The hostel has a smart card entry, and is designed to provide additional comfort to our students. The building will be commissioned during the 14th Convocation Ceremony.
