Education
In Nigeria, with its growing population, increasing demand for processed and preserved foods, and challenges like food spoilage, waste, nutrition, and safety, specialists in Food Science & Engineering are more important than ever. If you’re considering this course, it helps to know in advance which universities offer it, what JAMB/UTME subjects you must use, what your O’Level (WAEC/NECO etc.) results must include, as well as what options exist through Direct Entry. With that, you can plan smart, avoid surprises, and set yourself up for success. In this blog, you’ll find: A list of universities in Nigeria offering Food Science & Engineering The required JAMB / UTME subject combination for admission into Food Science & Engineering The O’Level subject & grade requirements (WAEC / NECO / SSCE etc.) needed
##What is Food Science and Engineering Course?
Food Science is a multidisciplinary field studying the physical, chemical, and biological aspects of food, while Food Engineering applies engineering, science, and mathematics principles to design, develop, and optimize processes and equipment for producing, processing, packaging, and distributing food
Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH)
##JAMB Subject Combination for Food Science and Engineering
In UTME, please note that English Language is a compulsory subject needed to study Food Science and Engineering with other three subjects namely: Mathematics, Physics/Biology, Chemistry
##O'Level Requirements for Food Science and Engineering
To be eligible for admission into a Food Science and Engineering program, candidates must meet specific O'level requirements. Generally, you are required to have at least five (5) credits in relevant subjects, which typically include:
