The JAMB Brochure for Faculty of Engineering, Environmental & Technology 2026

If you dream of designing skyscrapers, developing sustainable cities, or creating innovative technologies, the Faculty of Engineering, Environment, and Technology is where your journey begins. This faculty brings together three exciting fields that shape every aspect of modern life.

Engineering is where ideas become reality. Engineers design the roads we travel, the electricity that powers our homes, and the machines that manufacture everything we use. If you love solving problems and building things, this path awaits you.

Environmental Sciences focuses on creating spaces where people and nature thrive together. Architects, surveyors, and environmental managers work on projects that range from designing beautiful buildings to protecting our forests and water resources.

Technology turns knowledge into action. Information technologists, food scientists, and industrial designers use scientific principles to create solutions that improve how we live, work, and play.

Courses in this faculty are available primarily at universities, with related options at polytechnics and colleges of education. Before you register for the 2026 UTME, take time to consult the JAMB brochure and confirm that your chosen course falls under this faculty and meets all requirements. Getting this right from the start sets you up for success.

  • Chemistry

Note: The fifth subject may vary depending on the specific course and institution. Common options that satisfy this requirement include:

  • Agricultural Science
  • Biology
  • Further Mathematics
  • Geography
  • Technical Drawing

Candidates should note that while these subjects are generally accepted, confirming the exact requirements for their chosen institution remains essential.

Special Considerations by Institution

Different universities may have specific O'Level requirements that candidates must observe :

Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria: 

Accepts five O'Level credit passes in English Language, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and any other relevant subject. This flexibility allows candidates with strong backgrounds in related fields to apply.

Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUTECH): 

Requires O'Level credit passes in English Language and all relevant subjects. The university does not accept substitutes for core sciences, meaning candidates must present credits in the exact subjects specified for their chosen course.

Vocational and Technical Subjects

For candidates with vocational or technical backgrounds, some institutions accept relevant trade subjects in place of traditional O'Level options. Acceptable subjects may include :

  • Introduction to Agricultural Science
  • Materials and Workshop Process and Machining
  • Tractor Layout Power Unit Under Carriage
  • Auto Electricity
  • Technical Drawing
  • Building Construction

Important: Acceptance of vocational subjects varies by institution. Always confirm with your chosen university whether specific trade subjects are recognised for your intended course before proceeding with registration.

Direct Entry Requirements for Faculty of Engineering, Environment, and Technology 2026

Candidates applying through Direct Entry (DE) into the 200 level must meet specific requirements based on their qualifications. These candidates do not write the UTME but must register through JAMB at the designated state or zonal offices.

1. A' Level Passes

Candidates must possess a minimum of two A' Level passes in relevant subjects, typically Physics and Mathematics. Some institutions may also require Chemistry depending on the specific engineering or technology programme.

2. IJMB/JUPEB

Acceptable grades in Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics from recognised Interim Joint Matriculation Board (IJMB) or Joint Universities Preliminary Examinations Board (JUPEB) programmes are accepted by most universities.

3. National Diploma (ND)

An Upper Credit in relevant engineering or technology programmes from accredited polytechnics or monotechnics qualifies candidates for Direct Entry admission into the 200 level.

4. Higher National Diploma (HND)

Some universities accept HND holders into 200 or 300 level, though policies vary significantly by institution. Candidates should verify the specific requirements of their chosen university.

Additional Requirements

  • Direct Entry candidates must also meet the O'Level requirements (five credit passes including English, Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry).
  • Transcript submission from previous institutions is mandatory.
  • Some universities may conduct additional screening exercises for DE candidates.
