WAEC subject combination (requirements) for Electrical Engineering

The subjects needed to study Electrical Engineering in WAEC must contain five (5) credit. This subject combination is also applicable to NECO AND GCE… The O level requirement, that is, the required WAEC subject combination for Electrical Engineering must include

1. English Language
2. Mathematics
3. Physics
4. Chemistry
5. A trade subject

JAMB UTME subject combination (requirements) for Electrical Engineering

Knowing JAMB subjects for Electrical Engineering is not enough. You should aim for a score of 180 – 200 and above in JAMB UTME to be on a safe side (Just a piece of advice) because anything short of that may deny you of Admission/Post UTME. Of course, if you have a score below 180, you can consider College of Education or Polytechnic… Please note – JAMB is not the only option for admission. If you’re having troubles JAMB UTME maybe it’s time you pass through IJBM, JUBEB, ND, HND or Predegree!..

JAMB UTME subject combinations (subjects to write in jamb) to study Electrical Engineering are:

1. Chemistry
2. Mathematics
3. Physics

• ‘A’ level passes in Mathematics and Physics.
• ND/HND in Elect Eng. Upper/Lower credit respectively

If for some reasons you are not satisfied or cannot meet up with this admission requirement that is the subject combination above, perhaps you should consider other Electrical Engineering   similar courses or take a look at Polytechnic or College of Education related course subject requirements. You can also study online with a foreign university right from your bedroom or apply for a scholarship to study abroad. Education is now a choice. And please before you make a decision on which University to choose, please consider

• The Fees
• The Distance
• The Environment
• The Degree Certificate
• Vulnerability to Strike
• Acceptable O Level and A-level Result
• Academic Calendar

Cut-off Mark for Electrical Engineering course

The cut-off mark for Electrical Engineering varies. You can check these universities JAMB UTME cut off marks here. Electrical Engineering is a good course and you can also check the top best engineering courses. This should not influence you. Follow your heart or seek my counsel.

Electrical Engineering is how many years course and under which faculty?

Depending on your mode of entry, Electrical Engineering is a three to four years course in Nigeria. According to JAMB, Electrical Engineering is under Faculty of Agriculture but may be under a different faculty in some universities.

Can a commercial or art student study Electrical Engineering?

No! Electrical Engineering is a pure science course and not suitable for commercial or art student. But if you have required subject combination in your O level result, you can go for it if that is the course you desire to study. If you’re still in secondary school, you may find it difficult to change subjects during WAEC registration because your schools may go against it. The alternative way to write the required subjects combination for Electrical Engineering is through GCE

Where can I work with a Degree in Electrical Engineering 
I believe you now know the subjects required to study Electrical Engineering. I urge you to also find out where you can work with the degree. Please take your time to read The Act of Getting a Job – so you would know what you’re up against after graduating. Career opportunities will be added soon.

The SSCE O level and A-level subject needed to study Electrical Engineering have been listed above. Some Universities may accept D7 or E8 in some a compulsory subject instead of Credit. And some may accept or reject two sittings. That is combinations of WAEC, NECO, or GCE results. You will know more when you take a look at the special consideration (waiver) for this course if available.
