Metallurgical is a field of engineering discipline that study the metallic materials with aim to transform them to other useful materials and products that benefits mankind. It a branch of Materials Science and Engineering which encompasses the study of all form of material be it metal and non metal.
Metallurgical and Materials Engineering is behind all the materials being use in all of our high tech industries, be it metallic or composites material, ceramics and even the composite materials.
Listed below are the minimum entry requirements plus the WAEC and the JAMB subjects combination.

Direct Entry Applicants
Some of the higher qualifications accepted by the Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Nnamdi Azikiwe University (UNIZIK), Akwa for direct entry admission processes including but not limited to:
- GCE A'Level: good pass in two A'Level subjects which must be Physics/Chemistry and Mathematics
- JUPEB: good grade in Physic, Chemistry and Advance Level Mathematics
- IJMB A'Level: good points enough to be considered for admission
- National Diploma (ND): Upper Credit in relevant engineering programme.
- Higher National Diploma (HND): lower or upper credit in relevant engineering programme.
All the qualifications mentioned above eligible the holders to 200 level but if an applicant present HND with upper credit he could be considered to 300 level of the Metallurgical and Materials Engineering.
Students can take advantage of the UNIZIK pre-Science programme which eligible participants to 100 level on successful completion of the study.
Note: all the above mentioned higher qualifications must include O'level result as stated above.
Metallurgical and Materials Engineering at Nnamdi Azikiwe University (UNIZIK) is a five (5) years programme to those admitted to 100 level leading to the award of Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) honour degree.
It is accredited by the Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria (COREN)
