This article is designed to help students who wish to study Industrial Mathematics under the Faculty of Sciences at the Federal University of Technology (FUTA).
It is very important for all candidates who wish to apply for any of the courses offered in FUTA to carefully confirm and see if the course they selected is offered in the institution before registering for JAMB.
The requirements below cover the WAEC or NECO subject combination for Industrial Mathematics, the JAMB UTME papers, and the Direct Entry route, along with the minimum JAMB score the university applies.

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 Industrial Mathematics
WAEC/NECO Subject Combination
The WAEC/NECO subject combination and requirements needed to study Industrial Mathematics is Five (5) SSCE credits in English Language, Mathematics, Physics, and two other Science subjects.
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 Mathematics at FUTA include Physics, Chemistry, Economics, Biology, and Agricultural Science.
Direct Entry Requirement
These are the conditions you need to fulfil to gain Direct Entry admission to study Industrial Mathematics if you do not intend to use UTME.
You require two (2) ‘A’ Level/NCE passes in Mathematics, Physics, Economics, or Chemistry.
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.
Where Mathematics Is Named at FUTA Industrial Mathematics
Mathematics is required among the five O’level credits, where it sits beside English Language and Physics, with two further science subjects completing the list.
It appears again at Direct Entry, where two A’level or NCE passes are accepted in Mathematics, Physics, Economics or Chemistry.
The UTME entry above names Physics, Chemistry, Economics, Biology and Agricultural Science rather than a strict set of three, so candidates should confirm the exact JAMB combination with the department before registering.
Economics and Agricultural Science in that list are worth noting, since they show the course is not restricted to pure science candidates. A minimum of 180 and above in JAMB applies for the 2026/2027 session.
