There are however, variation to these requirements in some Nigerian higher institutions. In the case of some schools highlighted for you below:

  • ABUAD and OOU accepts further Mathematics in lieu of further Mathematics.
  • RSUT and MOUA accepts further Mathematics in place of Mathematics and requires Agricultural Science or Biology as the Fifth Subject.
  • ESUTECH requires Credit Pass in English Language and all other relevant Subjects.
  • UNILAG same as in Chemical Engineering requires Credit Pass in Further Mathematics.
  • FUTMINNA requires Five SSCE Credit Passes in English Language, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and any other Science Subject.
  • FED-OYEEKITI requires Five SSCE Credit passes in English Language, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and one Science or Social Science subject.

      Hi Daniel,
      Since you don’t have Physics, you should find from your intended Institution if they waiver for Physics.
      You can also search for institutions that do not require Physics to study Computer Engineering.
