The Polytechnic Ibadan has published the admission requirements for its Department of Mechanical Engineering. Three elements decide an application, namely the O’level subject combination, the four papers written at JAMB UTME, and the cut-off marks set by the institution and by the department.
Four O’level subjects are named outright, namely English Language, Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. Only the fifth is left open, and it comes from a short list of Biology or Agricultural Science, Technical Drawing, Basic Electronics or Basic Electricity, Auto Mechanics, Metal Work and Further Mathematics.
That one free slot is deliberately practical. It lets candidates from technical colleges present the workshop subjects they actually sat rather than a conventional science paper.
This is to inform the general public that the admission requirements for the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Ibadan Polytechnic (IBADAN POLY) have been published.
The admission requirements include O’level Subject combinations, JAMB UTME Subject combinations, and School and Departmental Cut-Off Marks.
Entry Requirements
O’Level Subject Combination
The O’level subject combination and requirements needed to study Mechanical Engineering Technology include the following:
- English Language

About The Polytechnic Ibadan
The Polytechnic Ibadan is a state-funded and managed polytechnic in Oyo State, Nigeria’s southwest.
The polytechnic was founded in 1970 as an institution dedicated to high-quality academics/education and research to develop new approaches for science and business use.
The Polytechnic Ibadan has a large and diverse student body that includes students of various ages, religions, and cultural backgrounds.
Meeting the 184 Mark for IBADANPOLY Mechanical Engineering
The institutional benchmark of 150 in JAMB is not the figure this department works to. The departmental cut-off mark for Mechanical Engineering Technology is 184, which puts it among the more competitive choices at the polytechnic.
Measure your result against 184 before you count on an offer. A score comfortably above the general bar can still fall short of what this course has published.
On papers, the UTME list is short and technical. English Language is compulsory and the other three come from Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics or Technical Drawing.
Since Physics and Chemistry are already required among your O’level credits, the JAMB choice between Physics and Technical Drawing changes your registration rather than your result sheet. Check the two lists separately.
