In the beginning NUC, benchmark approval was to create Faculty of Arts, out of the Institute of Foundation Studies. However, the wisdom of Prof. Mother Marie Eboh (Then Director of IFS), and her academic team pushed for the birth of the two Faculties (SOCIAL SCIENCES AND HUMANITIES).

In the same year, the Department of Psychology was created, and admitted its first set of undergraduate who are now in 400 levels under Dr. S. A. Egbuchu was appointed in 2018 as the pioneer Head of Department. The students will develop to be leaders and experts in the field of business/industry, and education.
