The General Directorate of Technological Studies (DGET) includes 25 institutes of technology and management throughout the country.

According to these data, the sum of the number of students from each university would give a total of 233,692 university students in Tunisia in the academic year 2018/2019. However, other sources report different figures. This might be because only the universities (offline and online) and the institutes of technological studies are included in this statistic.
