Chemistry, Mathematics, and another subject chosen from Biology, Physics, and Agricultural Science.
Direct Entry Requirement
These are the conditions you need to fulfil to gain Direct Entry admission to study Industrial Chemistry if you don’t intend to use UTME.
You require;
Two (2) ‘A’ Level/NCE passes in Mathematics and Chemistry.
JAMB Score
All candidates interested in getting admitted into FUPRE for the 2026/2027 session should know that to be eligible for the screening, you must have scored a minimum of 180 and above in your JAMB result.
Agricultural Science Counts Twice at FUPRE Industrial Chemistry
Agricultural Science is accepted in place of Biology at O’level, and it appears again at UTME as one of three options for the fourth paper alongside Biology and Physics.
That is a wider allowance than the department’s name suggests, and it means a candidate from an agricultural background is not excluded.
Chemistry and Mathematics are the fixed pair. Both are required among the five O’level credits, both appear at UTME, and both are named as the two Direct Entry passes.
Physics sits in the O’level list as a named credit while being optional at JAMB. Candidates need a minimum of 180 and above in their JAMB result for the 2026/2027 session.
