The Federal University of Technology Minna (FUTMINNA) has published the entry requirements for its Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering, covering the O’Level credits, the JAMB UTME combination and the Direct Entry route.
This is one of the tighter departments at FUTMINNA. The same four subjects appear in both the O’Level and the UTME lists, so there is no point at which you can substitute one science for another.
Those four are Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and English Language. Only the fifth O’Level credit is left open, and the UTME offers no optional slot at all for candidates applying through this route.
Entry Requirements
O’Level Subject Combination
The O’level subject combination and requirements needed to study Electrical & Computer Engineering include the following:
- Five SSCE credit passes, including Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and English Language.
Four named credits leave only the fifth to your own choice. A weakness in any one of Mathematics, Physics or Chemistry cannot be covered by a strong result elsewhere, because none of the four may be dropped.
JAMB UTME Subject Combination
Candidates will write the following Four (4) Subjects in JAMB
- English Language
- Mathematics
- Physics
- Chemistry
The UTME list is the O’Level four repeated with no alternatives offered. That makes preparation simpler to plan, since the subjects you revise for JAMB are exactly the ones you must already hold as credits.

The UTME List Repeats the O’Level Four at FUTMINNA Electrical and Computer Engineering
There is no flexibility to plan around in this department. Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and English Language are required as O’Level credits and written again in the UTME, which leaves the fifth credit as your only free choice.
Direct Entry candidates come in on A Level passes in Mathematics and Physics, or on an ND at upper credit or HND at lower credit in Electrical Engineering. Every applicant still needs 180 or above in JAMB for screening.
