About McPherson University

McPherson University was launched in 2012 as a private Christian university. It was founded by the Foursquare Gospel Church in Nigeria.

It remains a small university, with a graduating class of 92 in 2019.

Newer course options on offer include the four-year degree in nursing studies which was introduced in 2021 by the faculty of basic medical science, and a doctoral programme in computer science. Further expansion was enabled in November 2021 when the National Universities Commission approved the introduction of nine part-time degree programmes.
