List Of Schools In Nigeria Offering Food Science And Technology, Cut Off Mark & Their Admission Requirements

What is Food Science and Technology? Why do candidates go for Food Science and Technology? is it the passion for the course or the intentional evasion of Mathematics and other calculation courses? what is the reason for the increase in the search for universities that offer Food Science and Technology? The above questions are still lingering in the minds of many till date.

Truth be told, some students choose courses based on the JAMB approved subject combination requirements and information gotten from people as regards the schools that offer the course. Food Science and Technology is selected in a bid to evade any subject that involves calculations. many student look for courses like Food Science and Technology, Sociology, Law and some Art related courses that do not require mathematics.

For example, candidates who is from Delta state and selects Food Science and Technology in UNIBEN stands a greater chance of gaining admission to study the course than a candidate who hails from Lagos state or Sokoto state. Many students make the mistake of just selecting randomly without applying the Catchment area principle though this does not apply to Private Universities.
