This article is designed to help students who wish to study Computer Science with Economics, Mathematics under the Faculty of Engineering, Environment, and Technology at Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU).
Confirm that this combined Computer Science programme is still listed at OAU before you register for JAMB. Neither Economics nor the combined element appears anywhere in the subject requirements.
Obafemi Awolowo University offers undergraduate and postgraduate programs in specialization spanning the humanities, the arts, the natural sciences, the social sciences, the medical sciences, engineering, and technology.
The university has 13 faculties and two colleges, the Postgraduate College and the College of Health Sciences, administered in more than 60 departments. It was previously associated with Loma Linda University in California, USA.

O’Level Subject Combination
The O’level subject combination and requirements needed to study Computer Science with (Economics) (Mathematics); You require;
Five SSCE credits to include English Language, Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry
Four credits are named and the fifth carries no stated restriction. Despite the course title, Economics is not among them.
A candidate hoping that an Economics credit would carry weight here should plan on the science subjects instead.
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 Computer Science with (Economics) (Mathematics) under the Faculty of Engineering, Environment & Technology at OAU include;
Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics
The JAMB combination repeats three of the named credits beside the compulsory English Language, again without mentioning Economics.
Direct Entry Requirements
These are the conditions you need to fulfill to gain Direct Entry admission to study Computer Science with (Economics) (Mathematics) if you don’t intend to use UTME. You require;
- Two ‘A’ level passes in Mathematics, Physics, or Chemistry
Direct Entry is lighter than the single honours programme, asking for any two of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry rather than all three.
Subjects’ Special Consideration (Waiver) Remarks
- OAU accepts ND Computer Science (Upper credit)
The waiver adds a diploma route, accepting an ND in Computer Science at upper credit in place of the A Level passes.
Jamb Score
All candidates interested in getting admitted into OAU for the 2026/2027 session should know that to be eligible for the screening, you must have scored 200 or above in your JAMB result.
Why Economics Never Appears in the OAU Computer Science Combined Requirements
The course title names Economics and Mathematics, but the published requirements are built entirely on Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and English Language.
Direct Entry needs only two of the three sciences, or an ND in Computer Science at upper credit. Whichever route you take, OAU asks for 200 or above in JAMB for the 2026/2027 session.
