The public institution, established in 1986, evolved from the Scioto Technical College and Shawnee State Community College to become a four-year university. The 62-acre riverside campus features modern academic buildings and residential facilities where students can live on campus in traditional residence halls. The university maintains a focus on career-oriented programs, with notable strengths in digital gaming and simulation, health sciences, and business, while operating as an open-admission institution for Ohio residents. As members of the Mid-South Conference, the Shawnee State Bears compete in NAIA athletics, with the men's and women's basketball programs achieving notable success at the national level.
