The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has introduced
Computer Studies and Physical and Health Education as part of its UTME
subjects.
The board disclosed this in its weekly bulletin released by
the Director of Public Relations, Dr Fabian Benjamin, and made available to
newsmen in Abuja on Monday.
It said that candidates sitting for the UTME could now pick
Computer Studies or Physical and Health Education as part of the four required
UTME subjects, if they so desire or as dictated by their programme preferences.
The board said that the addition of the two subjects to the
existing 23 UTME subjects would commence from the 2022 UTME exercise.
According to the board, the move is to enhance the career
prospect of students transiting to tertiary institutions.
With the addition, there are now 25 UTME subjects to be
written by candidates.
Others are Agricultural Science, Arabic, Art, Biology,
Chemistry, Christian Religious Studies, Commerce, Economics, French, Geography,
Government, Hausa, History, and Home Economics.
Others are Igbo, Islamic Studies, Literature in English,
Mathematics, Music, Physics, Principles of Accounts, Use of English, and
Yoruba.
