Chemical Engineering at Modibbo Adama University of Technology, Yola runs under the Faculty of Engineering, Environment & Technology. The entry rules below are specific to this course, and they lean heavily on the physical sciences at every stage of the process. Read them against Modibbo Adama University of Technology, Yola listings.
Three subjects carry this application: Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. They appear in the O’Level credit list, again in the UTME combination, and once more in the Direct Entry requirement. There is no route into the course that avoids all three.
Confirm that Chemical Engineering is on the current MAUTECH course list and that you have selected it correctly before you register for JAMB. A course entered in error cannot be matched against the requirements set out here.

About Modibbo Adama University of Technology, Yola
Modibbo Adama University of Technology, Yola, is a research-intensive university located in Girei a town in Adamawa State in Northeastern Nigeria.
It was established in 1981 by the government of Nigeria with the mandate of creating Universities that specializes in producing graduates with practical and theoretical knowledge of Technology.
Admission Requirements for Chemical Engineering
WAEC/NECO Subject Combination
The WAEC/NECO subject combination and requirements needed to study Chemical Engineering is Five (5) SSCE credits in Mathematics, English Language, Physics, Chemistry, and any science subject.
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 Chemical Engineering under the Faculty of Engineering, Environment & Technology at MAUTECH include;
Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics.
Direct Entry Requirement
These are the conditions you need to fulfill to gain Direct Entry admission to study Chemical Engineering if you don’t intend to use UTME.
You require;
Two (2) ‘A’ Level/NCE passes in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry.
JAMB Score
All candidates interested in getting admitted into MAUTECH 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.
Reading the MAUTECH Chemical Engineering Requirements in Order
The O’Level line asks for five credits. Four of them are named: Mathematics, English Language, Physics and Chemistry. Only the fifth is open, and it must still come from the sciences, so there is little room to substitute a weaker paper.
The UTME combination narrows further. English Language is compulsory, and the three accompanying subjects are fixed as Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics. No alternative subject is offered in place of any of them.
Direct Entry mirrors that same trio. Two ‘A’ Level or NCE passes are required, drawn from Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. Candidates holding advanced passes outside those three will not meet this condition.
The JAMB cut-off of 180 is the screening threshold for the 2026/2027 session. It determines eligibility to be considered, not selection, and engineering courses at MAUTECH usually attract scores well above it.
