Computer Engineering is offered at the University of Lagos (UNILAG), in the Faculty of Engineering, Environment and Technology. This page covers the O’Level credits, the JAMB combination, the Direct Entry route and the JAMB score.
UNILAG is a federal government research university in Lagos State, in south western Nigeria. It remains among the most competitive institutions in the country for admissions, and holds one of the largest student populations of any Nigerian university.
Two details set this course apart from its neighbours in the same faculty. Further Mathematics is a named O’Level credit, and Direct Entry asks for three A level passes rather than the usual two.
Both conditions make it one of the more demanding engineering departments at UNILAG, and neither is obvious from the JAMB combination alone.
UTME Requirement for Computer Engineering
Below is the UTME Requirement for Computer Engineering in the faculty of Engineering/Environment/Technology;
- Five (5) SSC credit passes to include Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics, and English Language.
JAMB Subject Combination
Below is the UTME/JAMB SUBJECT COMBINATION for Computer Engineering in the faculty of Engineering/Environment/Technology;
- English Language(*), Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry.

Direct Entry Requirement for Computer Engineering
Below is the DIRECT ENTRY (DE) Requirement for Computer Engineering in the faculty of Engineering/Environment/Technology;
- Three (3) ‘A’ level passes in Pure Mathematics or Pure and Applied Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics.
JAMB Score
For any candidate to be admitted to any Department in the University of Lagos, the Candidate must score 200 and above in JAMB.
Further Mathematics and Three A Levels at UNILAG Computer Engineering
The O’Level requirement names all five credits. Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics and English Language, with no optional slot at all.
Further Mathematics is the one to check first. Many secondary schools treat it as an elective, so a candidate who did not sit it has no route through the UTME side of this course.
The JAMB combination is more conventional. English Language, Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry, with Further Mathematics not required as a UTME paper.
Direct Entry asks for three A level passes in Pure Mathematics or Pure and Applied Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics. Most UNILAG engineering departments ask for two, so this is a higher bar.
The JAMB score for any UNILAG department is 200 and above. Confirm your Further Mathematics credit before anything else, since it is the requirement most candidates overlook.
