The Federal University of Technology Minna (FUTMINNA) has published the entry requirements for its Department of Entrepreneurship & Business Studies, covering the O’Level credits, two waiver remarks, the JAMB UTME combination and Direct Entry.
Three subjects hold steady across the whole page. English Language, Mathematics and Economics are named in the general O’Level list, in the FUTMINNA O’Level waiver and in the UTME combination, so they are the credits to secure first.
What varies is the pool the remaining subjects are drawn from. This department publishes two waiver remarks, and each one sets a different list from the general requirement printed above it.
Entry Requirements
O’Level Subject Combination
The O’level subject combination and requirements needed to study Entrepreneurship & Business Studies include Five (5) SSCE credit passes in the following subjects:
- English Language
- Mathematics
- Economics, and any other two science subjects from below:
- Chemistry
- Physics
- Biology
- Geography
- Health Science
- Metal Works
- Wood Work
- Agricultural Science
- Technical Drawing
- Nutrition
- Food Science
Special Requirements (Waiver) Remarks
- FUTMINNA requires five O’ level credit passes to include English Language, Mathematics, Economics, and any two of Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Agricultural Science, Geography, Government, and Commerce.
This waiver and the general list above draw from different pools. The waiver adds Government and Commerce, which are not sciences, and leaves out several of the technical and vocational subjects named in the longer list.
Both statements are reproduced exactly as the department published them. The waiver is the FUTMINNA-specific remark for this programme, so it is the one that governs your two flexible O’Level credits where the two differ.
JAMB UTME Subject Combination
Candidates will write the following Four (4) Subjects in JAMB
- English Language
- Mathematics
- Economics and any one of Chemistry, Physics, or Biology
Special Requirements (Waiver) Remarks
- FUTMINNA requires Entrepreneurship and Business Studies, Mathematics, Economics, and any one of the Science or Social Science subject
This second remark does not line up with the UTME combination printed above it, which names English Language, Mathematics, Economics and one of Chemistry, Physics or Biology. Both versions are reproduced here exactly as published.
Because the two cannot be reconciled from the information on this page, confirm your UTME subject combination with the department or against the current JAMB brochure before you register.
Direct Entry Requirement
You need to fulfill these conditions to gain Direct Entry admission to study Entrepreneurship And Business Studies if you don’t intend to use UTME. You require;
- Two A’ Level passes in Economics, Accountancy, Business Management, Government, and Geography. Candidate must have a Science background at ‘O’ Level.
