The results obtained from the experiment carried out show water pollution in samples from CBAS, Canteen, Administrative block, with lead ranging from 0.012-0.45 mg/l and iron ranging from 012-0319 mg/l but with good and acceptable concentration of other metals tested for, phosphate is also at standard concentration. The sample's conductivity, concentration, and temperature are normal, but the pH ranges from 5.9 to 6.7, which indicates water acidity. Therefore from result obtain the extent of water pollution in Mountain Top University is mild and can be corrected.

ABSTRACT
In no small amount, human actions, including industrialization and farming practices, have contributed enormously to the destruction and contamination of the atmosphere that adversely affects the bodies of water (rivers and oceans) that are important for life. This paper aims to discuss simply what water pollution is and to address the cause, impact regulation and water pollution management as a whole in equal measure. Some recommendations have been mentioned, such as introducing environmental education.
This research focuses on assessing the level of microbiological contamination, the concentration of heavy metals in water Zn, Cr, Fe, Pb, Mn. And the nutrient content of phosphate concentrations found in water samples. The samples were obtained from the administrative block, organ house, ICT center, clinic center, collage of basic and applied research, humanities and management studies collage, new Elizabeth female hostel, rejection hall boys hostel, cafeteria, library, from ten separate locations in mountain top university.
The results obtained from the experiment carried out show water pollution in samples from CBAS, Canteen, Administrative block, with lead ranging from 0.012-0.45 mg/l and iron ranging from 012-0319 mg/l but with good and acceptable concentration of other metals tested for, phosphate is also at standard concentration. The sample's conductivity, concentration, and temperature are normal, but the pH ranges from 5.9 to 6.7, which indicates water acidity.
Therefore from result obtain the extent of water pollution in Mountain Top University is mild and can be corrected.
