A Closed Subject List at FUPRE Chemical Engineering
Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry appear on all three routes with no alternative offered. They sit among the five O’level credits, make up the UTME papers beside English Language, and form the Direct Entry requirement.
That leaves only the fifth O’level credit open, and even that must be a science subject.
Candidates sometimes assume Further Mathematics or Technical Drawing can substitute for one of the three. Nothing on this page supports that, so plan around the named subjects.
The score requirement is a minimum of 180 and above in your JAMB result for the 2026/2027 session, the same figure that applies across the university.
