Electrical and Electronic Engineering is offered under the Faculty of Engineering, Environment and Technology at Federal Polytechnic, Oko (OKOPOLY). This page covers the O’Level subject combination, the UTME subjects and the JAMB score required.
Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry form the core at both stages. The O’Level section then adds two further subjects drawn from a long technical list, which is where candidates from trade and technical colleges find their footing.
It is very important for all candidates who wish to apply for any courses offered in OKOPOLY to carefully confirm and see if the course they Selected is offered in the institution before registering for JAMB.
The polytechnic is situated within Oko town in Orumba North Local Government of Anambra State.
The kernel of what eventually became the polytechnic was the brainchild of the Oko Progressive Union (OPU), greatly catalysed by the patronage, resourcefulness and result-oriented leadership of its pioneer chairman, a former Executive Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Dr Alex Ekwueme.
The institution is strategically located and surrounded by several centres of industries, commerce and diverse local crafts such as Awka (well known for blacksmith/iron works), Nnewi (Industry and technological products) and Onitsha and Aba (reputed for Commerce and Industries).
The climatic condition of the host community ranges between 28 and 42 degrees centigrade.
It is one of Nigeria’s fastest-developing tertiary institutions with a highly futuristic disposition. It has a functional memorandum of understanding with universities within and outside the country. The Polytechnic has three campuses.
- The main campus at Oko occupies a total land area of 89 hectares.
- Ufuma campus: This occupies a total land area of 52 hectares.
- Atani campus: This occupies a total area of 40 hectares.
To study Electrical/Electronic Engineering, candidates must meet the following requirements.

Technical Subjects That Help an OKOPOLY Electrical Engineering Bid
Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry are the fixed O’Level subjects, with two more taken from a list that includes Technical Drawing, Basic Electronics or Basic Electricity, Auto Mechanics, Metal Work, Further Mathematics, Geography and Economics or Commerce.
A credit pass in English Language is required on top of that, so candidates should not treat it as one of the optional five. The Biology condition in the list applies only to Marine Engineering and Industrial Safety and Environmental Engineering.
The UTME combination is short: English Language, Mathematics, Physics and either Chemistry or Technical Drawing. The screening threshold at Oko is 100 in JAMB, which makes you eligible rather than guaranteeing a place.
