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 Industrial Design at FUTA include Chemistry, Mathematics, and Fine Art/Physics.

Direct Entry Requirement

These are the conditions you need to fulfill to gain Direct Entry admission to study Industrial Design if you do not intend to use UTME.

You require Fine Arts, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics.

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.

Fine Art Against Physics at FUTA Industrial Design

The UTME combination offers a choice that few technology courses do. Chemistry and Mathematics are fixed beside the compulsory English Language, and the fourth paper can be either Fine Art or Physics.

That single alternative is what lets art students into an engineering faculty programme. Direct Entry reinforces it by naming Fine Arts first among the subjects it recognises.

The O’level list is the widest part of the page. Beyond the named subjects it runs through building trades, joinery, carpentry, ceramics, graphics and basic electricity, so technical college candidates are well covered.

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. Candidates need a minimum of 180 and above in their JAMB result for the 2026/2027 session.
