Public Administration is taught under the Faculty of Social & Management Sciences at Adamawa State University. Economics and Mathematics are named at both the O’Level and UTME stages.
The Direct Entry line reads differently from the rest of the page, pairing Economics with a science subject rather than a social science one. That is worth checking before relying on it.
Confirm that Public Administration appears on the current ADSU course list and that your JAMB registration records it correctly before you sit the examination.

The O’Level line names Mathematics, Economics and English Language, then adds three other social science subjects, which comes to six credits. Confirm the exact count with the department.
The UTME combination is consistent and clear. English Language is compulsory, Economics and Mathematics are fixed, and the last paper is any other social science subject.
Direct Entry asks for two ‘A’ Level or NCE passes including Economics and one other science subject. Nothing else on the page asks for a science paper.
