Failing to create a SBT project in Intellij


I tried to convert a Scala project (without SBT) to an SBT project and I am struggling to run it in IntelliJ. I have Scala 2.11 and Java 8 installed correctly but still no luck. I think there is a configuration with IntelliJ which I am not doing correctly. I appreciate any help or hint.

build.sbt:

name := "hw2"

version := "1.0"

scalaVersion := "2.11.7"

unmanagedBase := baseDirectory.value / "libs"

Directory structure:

.
├── build.sbt
├── libs
│   └── rhino-1.7.7.2.jar
├── output
├── project
│   ├── build.properties
│   ├── project
│   └── target
├── src
│   └── main
├── target
│   ├── global-logging
│   ├── scala-2.11
│   ├── streams
│   └── task-temp-directory
└── test
    ├── simple.js
    └── while.js

IntelliJ doesn't recognize the build.sbt file
