WAEC and JAMB Subject Combination For Computer Engineering: What are the JAMB Subject combination to study Computer Engineering in Nigeria?, Must I pass Maths in WAEC to study Computer Engineering?, what subjects are needed to study Computer Engineering?
Hey SAVANTS! welcome to today’s episode of my “JAMB doctor Series” in this episode, you will see the correct WAEC and JAMB Subject combination for Computer Engineering, you will also see Direct entry requirement to study Computer Engineering through JAMB, JUPEB and IJMB, pretty cool right?… STAY TUNED!
For everyone who plans to study Computer Engineering in Nigeria, it is important and necessary you know the subjects that are required to becoming a Computer Engineer in Nigeria.
I have seen cases, where students who wish to study a particular course go ahead to register the wrong subject combination in JAMB and in their O’level (WAEC, NECO or NABTEB) simply because they were not well informed and would later start searching for means with which they can correct the mistake.

Luckily for you, with the aid of this guide you will be fully endowed with the required WAEC and JAMB Subject combination to study Computer Engineering in any University in Nigeria, mind you, this subject combination is the same for all Universities, Polytechnics and Colleges of Education in Nigeria.
So, irrespective of the school you want to study in (UNIBEN, UI, UNILAG, DELSU e.t.c) these are the subjects you must enroll and pass to be eligible for admission to study Computer Engineering in Nigeria.
If you must study Computer Engineering in Nigeria you must first get a minimum of five (5) credits in your O’ level (WAEC, NECO or NABTEB) core courses and enroll four (4) subjects in JAMB which you should score at least 220 to increase your chances of admission.

Subjects Required To Study Computer Engineering
The subjects Required to study Computer Engineering in Nigeria are…
- Mathematics
- English Language
- Physics
- Chemistry
- Biology*
Some of these subjects may not be required in some cases (JAMB or O’level), I will highlight each of these subject and in what instances they may be applicable or needed.
Physics and Chemistry: Physics and Chemistry subjects are core for your O’ level exams like WAEC, NECO, NABTEB or GCE. For JAMB you will not enroll Biology. that is, Biology is required in JAMB to study Computer Engineering but it may or may not be included in your O’ level.
