UTME, SSCE & DE Subjects For Agricultural Engineering

If you choose to consider Agricultural Engineering in JAMB UTME/DE or while changing institutions/courses, you'll want to know what the admission requirements are.

With this, you want answers to three questions depending on your own concerns. As a UTME candidate, you want to know:

1. The JAMB subject combination for Agricultural Engineering and 
2. SSCE (O'level) subject requirement for it.

As Direct Entry (DE) applicant, you want to know, aside from the O'level requirements, which concern you too, what the A'level, NCE, ND, HND, or BSC required for Agric Engineering.

In this post, using the official JAMB brochure, I'll be giving you the official admission requirements for ALL universities that are offering Agricultural Engineering.

First, The General JAMB Requirement for Agric Engineering

According to the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB), candidates seeking admission into Agricultural Engineering must have the following.

1. Direct Entry (DE) Applicants: (i) A'level passes or equivalent in Physics and Mathematics.
2. SSCE/DE Applicants: Five (5) SSC credit passes in English Language, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and any from Introduction to Agricultural Science, Materials and Workshop Process and Machining, Tractor Layout Power Unit Under Carriage and Auto Electricity; Transmission System; Implement and Machine; Principles of Crop Husbandry and Land Use, Materials and Workshop Processes; Construction and Maintenance of Agricultural Machines; general Metal Work; General Wood Work and Building/Engineering Drawing.
   
3. JAMB subject Combination: English, Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics.

With the stated conditions above, if a student should follow, the university proposed should admit him or her provided you meet other admission conditions.

Second, The Specific Requirement By A Few Universities Offering Agric Engineering

To prove this further and show you if any difference in what each university may ask for, let's sample three of the universities - federal, state, and private. The sample universities DE, SSCE, and JAMB subjects are numbered 1, 2, and 3 respectively.

Federal University Of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Ogun State accepts as follows.

1. 'A' Level passes or equivalent in Physics and Mathematics.
2. Five (5) SSC credit passes in English Language, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and any from Introduction to Agricultural Science, Materials and Workshop Process and Machining, Tractor Layout Power Unit Under Carriage and Auto Electricity; Transmission System; Implement and Machine; Principles of Crop Husbandry and Land Use, Materials and Workshop Processes; Construction and Maintenance of Agricultural Machines; general Metal Work; General Wood Work and Building/Engineering Drawing.
3. Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics.

Ladoke Akintola University Of Technology, Ogbomoso, Oyo State accepts as follows.

1. 'A' Level passes or equivalent in Physics and Mathematics.
2. Five (5) SSC credit passes in English Language, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and any from Introduction to Agricultural Science, Materials and Workshop Process and Machining, Tractor Layout Power Unit Under Carriage and Auto Electricity; Transmission System; Implement and Machine; Principles of Crop Husbandry and Land Use, Materials and Workshop Processes; Construction and Maintenance of Agricultural Machines; general Metal Work; General Wood Work and Building/Engineering Drawing.
3. Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics.

Landmark University, Omu-Aran, Kwara State accepts as follows.

1. 'A' Level passes or equivalent in Physics and Mathematics.
2. Five (5) SSC credit passes in English Language, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and any from Introduction to Agricultural Science, Materials and Workshop Process and Machining, Tractor Layout Power Unit Under Carriage and Auto Electricity; Transmission System; Implement and Machine; Principles of Crop Husbandry and Land Use, Materials and Workshop Processes; Construction and Maintenance of Agricultural Machines; general Metal Work; General Wood Work and Building/Engineering Drawing.
3. Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics.

Conclusion

While seeking admission into any university offering Agricultural Engineering in Nigeria, like any other course, the JAMB official requirement should be your priority because most if not the universities will comply with that.

As you must have seen in the post and with the sampled universities, the primary requirements are still in accordance with that of JAMB.
