Are you an aspiring student who wishes to study Biomedical Engineering / Technology at any institution in Nigeria? If yes then this is the right place to be.

Biomedical Engineering is a science course and it is only suitable for only this set of students as a low competitive course.

The course itself is under the faculty of Agriculture which will take students about four years to obtain a degree in.

Biomedical Engineering/ Technology is the application of engineering and technology principles to the domain of living or biological systems, with an emphasis on human health and diseases,

In this article, we will be discussing extensively the JAMB Subject Combination for Biomedical Engineering Technology, the requirements, and WAEC Subject Combination for Biomedical Engineering for both high school graduates and Direct Entry candidates.

Notably, this will in a way guide prospective candidates who wish to study the above course to make the right and informed decisions.

One of the major reasons for changing students’ course is because of the combination of wrong subjects. Hence, this article will serve a great purpose.
