American University Of Nigeria

The goal of the American University of Nigeria (AUN) is to train the future leaders of Africa and to serve as both a stimulus and agent of economic development throughout the region. All students, regardless of academic specialization, receive high-level training in information technology, entrepreneurship, and in arts and sciences, all of which are the key to future sustainable development.

The American University of Nigeria (AUN) is committed to providing the skills and the leadership essential to advancing the continent’s pressing social and economic challenges. A university experience involves more than disseminating knowledge—it includes learning how to solve problems, work across disciplines and industries, and prepare each of you to be agents of goodwill that will be the keys to your success.

American University of Nigeria was founded in 2003 by Atiku Abubakar, Nigeria’s former vice president, along with other local and international statesmen and academic leaders. We invite you to visit our campus and meet us in person. We welcome the chance to share with you how becoming a member of the AUN learning community can help you prepare for all your future endeavors. If you decide to visit our campus from afar or in Yola for business trips, consider staying at the serene American University Hotel. It’ll be worthwhile.
