Compulsory Subjects:
Spectrum Set (Exactly 3):
Telecommunication Engineering JAMB Combination: English Language, Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry.
Direct Entry (DE) Requirements for 2026/2027
A-level antennas? Amplify to 200 level:
- A’Level/IJMB/JUPEB: Passes in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry.
- Relevant ND/HND: In engineering with upper credit.
- UTME Subjects for DE: Replicate the spectrum (English, Maths, Phys, Chem).
- O-level credits tuned.
Telecommunication Engineering Cut‑off marks 2026/2027
- Screening threshold: typically 200–220+ for Engineering.
- Competitive targets:
- UTME: aim 240–280+ (260–300+ for top federal universities)
- Aggregate after Post‑UTME/Screening: target 65–75%+ (varies by formula)
Tip: Many schools weigh UTME + Post‑UTME/Screening + sometimes O’Level grades.
Top universities that offer Telecommunication Engineering
- Federal University of Technology, Minna (FUTMINNA) – Telecommunication Engineering
- Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT), Kaduna – Telecommunication Engineering
- Federal/State/Private universities offering Electrical/Electronics or Electronic Engineering often provide Telecommunication option/specialization in later years (e.g., FUTA, FUTO, UNILORIN, UNILAG, UNN—check departmental pages)
- B.Sc. Telecommunication Science (closely related, non‑engineering) exists in some schools (e.g., UNILORIN); JAMB mix may still prefer Mathematics + Physics + Chemistry—verify the programme page
