2. Mathematics If you don’t have credit in Mathematics, Click here fast
3. Physics
4. Chemistry
5. A trade subject

 

What is JAMB UTME subject combination (subjects needed) for Electrical Engineering?
You should aim for a score of 180 – 200 and above in JAMB UTME to be on a safe side (Just an 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 or Predegree. JAMB UTME subject combination (subject to write in jamb) for Electrical Engineering are

1. Chemistry
2. Mathematics If you don’t have credit in Mathematics, Click here fast
3. Physics

 

What is Direct Entry requirement (that is the required A-level result you need) to study Electrical Engineering?
(i) ‘A’ level passes in Mathematics and Physics.
(ii) ND/HND in Elect Eng. Upper/Lower credit respectively

 

Just a reminder: Everything you have read so far is a general requirement, it is expedient that you also check the special consideration for this course below. If for some reasons you are not satisfied or cannot meet up with the subject combination above, perhaps you should consider taking 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.

 

So now that you know the compulsory WAEC, JAMB subject combination for Electrical Engineering, (which is also applicable to NECO and GCE) as well as A-level result/certificate. Do you know which Universities in Nigeria offer Electrical Engineering?
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

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. Yet, 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. Some Universities may accept D7 or E8 in some a compulsory subject instead of Credit.
