Why a GBS M.Sc.

A German master's degree with a real path to Germany

Three semesters in Tunis, two in Germany — and a degree that lets you work there.

The GBS Master of Science programmes are FIBAA-accredited and built to German academic standards. You study in English in Tunis, earn SAP certifications, and learn German alongside your courses — from zero to B1 — so you are ready for Germany from semester 4.

You then spend a semester at a partner university in Germany and a semester on an internship in a German company, where you write your research master thesis. After graduation, your German M.Sc. qualifies you for a 6-month job-seeker visa in Germany.
