Subject combination for mechanical engineering in funaab

Here’s the official subject combination and entry requirements for Mechanical Engineering at the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB) — applicable for UTME admission into the 2026/2027 academic session:

UTME Subject Combination

To qualify for admission into Mechanical Engineering at FUNAAB via UTME you must have taken all three (3) of the following JAMB subjects:
✔ Mathematics
✔ Physics
✔ Chemistry

These are the core subjects required for most engineering programmes at FUNAAB.

O’Level (SSCE) Subject Requirements

You must have five (5) O’Level credit passes in the following subjects (obtained in not more than two sittings):

1. English Language

2. Mathematics

3. Physics

4. Chemistry

5. Biology (or another science subject acceptable to the university)

These credits should be in either WAEC, NECO, or equivalent examinations.

🧠 Important: FUNAAB does not accept Economics as a substitute for any of the required subjects for Engineering programmes — it must strictly be Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry at UTME level.

Direct Entry Requirements

If you’re applying via Direct Entry (DE) instead of UTME, you’ll typically need:

• Two (2) A-Level credit passes in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry, or

• Relevant ND/HND (Upper Credit) in Mechanical Engineering or related disciplines.

Summary of Key Points

Tips Before You Apply

• Ensure FUNAAB is your first choice on the JAMB portal before registration.
• Check FUNAAB’s latest admission brochure or official portal because requirements can slightly change year to year.
• Meeting the subject combination and cut–off marks does not guarantee admission — you must also perform well in the Post-UTME screening.
