Electronics Engineering is offered under the Faculty of Engineering, Environment and Technology at the University Of Nigeria (UNN), Nsukka. This page covers the O’Level credits, the UTME combination, Direct Entry and the JAMB score.
Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry are the three subjects that carry an engineering application here, and all three appear in both the O’Level and UTME conditions.
Only the fifth O’Level credit is open, and it still has to be a science subject, so there is little room for a mixed subject profile.

The admission requirements consist of O’level Subject combinations, JAMB UTME Subject combinations, and School and Departmental Cut-Off Marks.
About UNN
The University of Nigeria was the first indigenous university in Nigeria to attain full-fledged and autonomous status. It was modelled after the American educational system. It is the first land-grant university in Africa and one of Nigeria’s five most reputed universities.
The University has 102 academic departments in 15 Faculties and offers 82 undergraduate and 211 postgraduate programs.
O’Level Subject Combination
The O’level subject combination and requirements needed to study Electronics Engineering;
You require; Five SSCE credit passes to include Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, English Language, and any other Science subject.
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 Electronics Engineering under the Faculty of Engineering, Environment & Technology at UNN include Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry.
Direct Entry Requirement
These are the conditions you need to fulfil to gain Direct Entry admission to study Electronics Engineering if you don’t intend to use UTME.
You require; Two ‘A’ level passes in Mathematics, Physics, or Chemistry.

JAMB Score
All candidates interested in getting admitted into UNN for the 2026/2027 session should know that to be eligible for the screening, you must have a minimum score of 200 or above in your JAMB result.
A Straight Science Path Into UNN Electronics Engineering
The O’Level requirement is five credits covering Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, English Language and one further science subject. Four of the five are named, so the profile is fixed.
The UTME combination repeats three of them. English Language is compulsory and you sit Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry, which means a candidate meeting the O’Level condition will usually have a valid registration already.
Direct Entry asks for two A Level passes from Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. UTME candidates must reach the Nsukka screening threshold of 200 in JAMB, which is high for an engineering course.
