The College believes that research in a developing country like Nigeria should focus on creating the good life for the people through the application of Science and Technology. Research for research sake though desirable is not the priority of the College for as long as poverty and ignorance predominate in the Nigerian Society. The intention of the College is to focus on the application of acquired theoretical knowledge in the improvement of the quality of life of the African.
Many of the researches that have so far been attempted and are on-going include:

I. An automated Speech-Controlled Customer-Care Service System.
II. A Study of Covenant University Sewage Treatment Plant.
III. Passive Solar Drying.
IV. Developing A Virtual Learning Portal for Covenant University.
V. Trends In Architectural Practice In Nigeria Since 1960.
VI. On IRNA Structures Using Graph Theory Methods.
VII. Design And Construction Of An Electronic Scrolling Board For the College of Science and Technology.
VIII. Impact of Air Pollution from Fossil Fuel Combustion On the Society.

The College has made proposals for the setting up of a Centre for Biotechnology, Bioinformatics and Microbiology (CBBM), a regional resource centre with the following goals and mission:
• To create a platform for a strong national and international partnership with the academia, industries and governments for growth of biotechnology and bioinformatics.
• To promote research, problem-solving, training and support for entrepreneurship in the areas of applied biotechnology, bioinformatics and microbiology and
• To utilize research and development resources in bioinformatics and biotechnology in harnessing untapped resources in Nigeria and Africa.
The activities of the proposed Centre will embrace research, training and support services for the University and the Society at large. In the long run, the College wants to make an impact on the life of the people and also develop its capacity for excellence.
