About Federal University of Technology
The Federal University of Technology (FUTA) is located in Akure, Ondo State, Nigeria.
It was established in 1981 as part of a motivated effort by the Federal government of Nigeria to create specialized universities that produce graduates grounded in both the theoretical and practical aspects of technology.
Admission Requirements for Electrical / Electronic Engineering
WAEC/NECO Subject Combination
The WAEC/NECO subject combination and requirements needed to study Electrical / Electronic Engineering is Five (5) SSCE credits in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, English Language, and any other Science subject.
JAMB Subject Combination
In UTME, please note that the English Language is Compulsory for this course.
Therefore, the three (3) other JAMB UTME subject combinations needed to study Electrical / Electronic Engineering at FUTA include Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry.
Direct Entry Requirement
You must fulfil these conditions to gain Direct Entry admission to study Electrical / Electronic Engineering if you do not intend to use UTME.
You require Mathematics, Physics or Chemistry.
Two (2) ‘A’ Level/NCE passes in any 200 or 300-level course at the NCE/HND/OND program.
JAMB Score
All candidates interested in getting admitted into FUTA 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.
A Diploma Route Into FUTA Electrical and Electronic Engineering
Direct Entry here has two branches. The first names Mathematics with either Physics or Chemistry, and the second accepts two A’level or NCE passes at 200 or 300 level through an NCE, HND or OND programme.
That second branch is the one that matters to polytechnic graduates, since it does not depend on advanced level subject results.
For UTME candidates the combination is fixed at Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry beside the compulsory English Language.
O’level asks for the same four subjects plus any other science subject as the fifth credit, so only that last place is open.
The university has a competitive admissions process and does not consider a student’s age, cultural background or religion when deciding whether to admit them. A minimum of 180 and above in JAMB applies for the 2026/2027 session.
