UNIZIK Polymer Textile Engineering Entry Requirements

Polymer and Textile Engineering is a discipline that work to create new or improve the existing plastic and textile materials. It is a domain of Petrochemical Engineering but with a focus on plastic and textile materials.

The Nnamdi Azikiwe University (UNIZIK) is one of the two universities that are teaching the programme in Nigeria. Other varieties of this discipline are Polymer Engineering and Chemical & Polymer Engineering.

Listed on this page are the minimum entry qualifications accepted from O'level and Direct Entry Applicants by the Department of Polymer and Textile Engineering to study for the Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) honour degree. 

Detailing on this page, also are WAEC and JAMB's subjects combination for the five (5) undergraduate programme.

Direct Entry Applicants

Some of the higher qualifications accepted by the Department of Polymer and Textile 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 Polymer and Textile Engineering.

Students can take advantage of the UNIZIK pre-Science programme which eligible participants to 100 level on successful completion of the study.
