One Open Credit in FUPRE Mechanical Engineering
Four O’level subjects are named for this course, namely Mathematics, English Language, Physics and Chemistry. The fifth credit can be any science subject, which is the only choice the department leaves open.
At UTME nothing is optional. The three papers beside the compulsory English Language are Physics, Mathematics and Chemistry, and the Direct Entry list names the same three subjects.
Chemistry is worth singling out, since candidates sometimes assume a mechanical course will accept Further Mathematics or Technical Drawing in its place. This page does not.
The score to clear is a minimum of 180 and above in your JAMB result for the 2026/2027 session. Check the four named O’level subjects first, then your JAMB combination.
