Through our Department, BU offers a focused, purposeful and moral formation and reformation of a new breed of legal practitioners and well-equipped security industry against a backdrop of general insecurity in a post-military civil society. These needs are glaring in every sphere of Nigerian public life civil, criminal, constitutional and economic matters. BU is an international university with affiliation with other universities across the globe under the supervision of the Seventh-day Adventist Church worldwide. We are a member of various reputable and focused academic and research bodies. Adapting the text of the famous quote by the world-renown educationist thinker, Ellen G. White, by substituting the word “lawyer” for “men”, the most adequate presentation of the rationale for a law programme at Babcock within the context of today's societal needs would be best summarized as follows:
The greatest want of the world is the want of (lawyers) (Lawyers) who will not be bought or sold, (lawyers) who in their inmost souls are true and honest, (lawyers) who do not fear to call sin by its right name, (lawyers) whose conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole, (lawyers) who will stand for the right though the heavens fall. (Education, 57).
VISION STATEMENT
First class Seventh-day Adventist School of law, building lawyers equipped with security skill as servant-leaders for a better world.
MISSION STATEMENT
To provide highly ethical Christian professional training (preventive, protective, investigative, and scientific) in all branches of the Legal profession and the security environment within which they operate
We offer Programs that are competitive and industry relevant. Our Graduates from the department come out equipped to deal with real world challenges.
