Surveying and Geo-Informatics is offered at the University Of Nigeria (UNN), Nsukka. This page covers the O’Level subject list, the UTME subject combination, the Direct Entry routes and the JAMB score the university requires.
Mathematics and Physics do the work in this requirement. Both appear in the O’Level list and both are sat in UTME, which fits a course built on measurement, mapping and spatial data.
Note that the subject lists below are shared with other programmes in the same faculty at Nsukka, so they cover building and design subjects as well as the numerate ones most relevant here.
The admission requirements include O’level Subject combinations, JAMB UTME Subject combinations, and School and Departmental Cut-Off Marks.

Direct Entry Requirement
You need the following to gain Direct Entry admission to study Surveying and Geo-Informatics if you don’t intend to use UTME
- Two ‘A’ level passes chosen from Mathematics or Physics and Chemistry, Geography or Fine Arts.
- ND/HND upper credits in relevant field.
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.
Geography Is the Smart Third Subject for UNN Surveying
Physics and Mathematics are fixed in the UTME combination, and the third subject is your choice from Chemistry, Geography, Art, Biology and Economics. Geography is the one that overlaps most directly with the Surveying and Geo-Informatics syllabus.
At O’Level the department works from a long shared list. English Language, Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry sit at the top, followed by design and building trade subjects that candidates from technical colleges will recognise.
Direct Entry takes two A Level passes from Mathematics or Physics plus Chemistry, Geography or Fine Arts, or an ND or HND at upper credit in a relevant field. UTME candidates need a JAMB score of at least 200.
