This article is designed to help students who wish to study Quantity Surveying under the Faculty of Environmental 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.
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 on the part of the Federal government of Nigeria to create specialized universities that produce graduates grounded in both the theoretical and practical aspects of technology.

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.
Four Fixed Credits Before the FUTA Quantity Surveying Options
The O’level requirement here is split into two parts for a reason. English Language, Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics are fixed, and only the fifth credit is chosen from the long list that follows.
That list is unusually generous, covering Fine Art, Geography, Technical Drawing and Biology alongside trade subjects such as bricklaying, concreting, joinery, ceramics and basic electricity.
At UTME the shape changes. Physics and Mathematics are fixed beside English Language, and the fourth paper comes from Chemistry, Geography, Art, Biology or Economics, so Chemistry becomes optional at JAMB even though it is compulsory at O’level.
Direct Entry asks for two A’level or NCE passes, one from Mathematics or Physics and the other from Chemistry, Geography or Fine Arts. UTME candidates need a minimum of 180 and above in JAMB for the 2026/2027 session.
