Does MAUTECH offer Broadcast Journalism?
Broadcast Journalism is not on the list of undergraduate programmes MAUTECH offers for the 2026 cycle.
MAUTECH's current catalogue does not include Broadcast Journalism for the 2026 cycle. The reason is institutional focus or NUC accreditation rather than candidate demand.

No institutions in this guide currently offer Broadcast Journalism.
What MAUTECH offers instead
MAUTECH does not offer a close substitute to Broadcast Journalism within its current undergraduate catalogue. Candidates set on Broadcast Journalism would need to choose another institution from the table above, or explore a related undergraduate programme in a different but adjacent field.
Switching institutions for a specific course is a common path in the Nigerian admission system. The change-of-institution window during the JAMB cycle lets candidates pivot before the post-UTME stage, and many candidates carry their first-choice score across to a more suitable institution.
Why some universities do not offer every course
Not every Nigerian university offers every JAMB-listed course. Universities are either comprehensive, covering most disciplines, or specialised, focusing on a narrower range such as technology, agriculture or theology.
The National Universities Commission accredits each programme separately, and the absence of a course in an institution's catalogue usually reflects either the institution's strategic focus or the fact that the NUC has not yet approved that specific programme for the institution. MAUTECH's current catalogue is concentrated on technology and engineering disciplines which is why Broadcast Journalism sits outside the MAUTECH undergraduate offer.
Frequently asked questions
Does MAUTECH offer Broadcast Journalism for postgraduate study?
Broadcast Journalism is not currently in the MAUTECH undergraduate catalogue tracked in this guide. Postgraduate availability is a separate question handled by the institution's school of postgraduate studies, and should be confirmed on the official MAUTECH portal.
When might MAUTECH add Broadcast Journalism to its programmes?
New undergraduate programmes require National Universities Commission accreditation and the development of curricula, faculty and infrastructure. There is no public timeline for MAUTECH adding Broadcast Journalism, and candidates targeting the course should plan around institutions that already offer it.
What is the closest alternative to Broadcast Journalism at MAUTECH?
MAUTECH does not currently run a close substitute for Broadcast Journalism. Candidates committed to Broadcast Journalism would need to select another institution from the table above.
How do I check NUC-approved courses at MAUTECH?
The National Universities Commission publishes the full list of accredited programmes at each Nigerian university. Use the NUC database or the official MAUTECH admissions portal to confirm the latest accredited programmes before applying for any course.
Can I transfer to study Broadcast Journalism elsewhere after starting at MAUTECH?
Inter-university transfers in Nigeria are possible but bureaucratic, and typically require strong academic standing in the first year. A cleaner route is to apply directly to an institution that offers Broadcast Journalism, either as a first choice from the start or via the change-of-institution window during the JAMB admission cycle.
