The Admiralty University of Nigeria (ADUN) was established by the Nigerian Navy Holdings (a subsidiary organization of the Nigerian Navy). The objectives of the University are manifold: to expand the frontiers of knowledge in various academic disciplines in Nigeria; to use University education as a tool towards development and the enhancement of human welfare; to meet the challenges of nation building in Nigeria; and to address the acute shortage of personnel in various sectors of the economy in Nigeria. The main campus of the University is located in Ibusa â Ogwashi-Uku Expressway, Delta State, about 20km from Asaba, the Delta State capital. The University also has another campus located on 203 acres of land at the existing site of the Nigerian Navy Engineering College, in Sapele (Sapele Local Government Area).
