Urban and Regional Planning 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 and Geography are the two fixed O’Level subjects, with three more chosen from a list spanning the sciences, the social sciences and technical drawing. A credit pass in English Language is compulsory on top.
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 catalyzed 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, Ok, 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.

- Ufuma campus: This occupies a total land area of 52 hectares.
