Urban and Regional Planning is offered at the University of Lagos (UNILAG), within the Faculty of Engineering, Environment and Technology. This page covers the O’Level credits, the JAMB subject combination, two Direct Entry routes 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.
Geography is the subject that defines this course. It is a compulsory O’Level credit, it appears in the JAMB combination, and it is one of the two named A level subjects for Direct Entry.
Mathematics sits beside it in each of those three places. Together they form the core that every route into the department assumes.

Geography and Mathematics Run Through UNILAG Urban and Regional Planning
The O’Level requirement fixes English Language, Mathematics and Geography, then takes two more credits from a list that spans the sciences, the social sciences and the arts.
Physics, Chemistry, Economics, Government, Biology, Art, History, IRK or CRK, Social Studies and Technical Drawing all count, which is an unusually wide field for a course in this faculty.
The JAMB combination draws on English Language, Mathematics, Geography, Economics, Physics and Chemistry, so your UTME papers can be built from subjects already in your O’Level set.
Direct Entry offers two routes. Two A level passes in Geography and Mathematics, or an ND or HND at upper credit in Town Planning or a related programme taken alongside the UTME requirements.
Note that the diploma route does not replace the UTME conditions, it adds to them. The JAMB score for any UNILAG department is 200 and above, and that applies on both routes.
