International Master in Service Engineering (IMSE) programme has been carefully designed at the interface of software service systems and new globe-spanning business processes to prepare students with a background in either business or information technology to become the new generation of service engineers.

Europe is definitely the place to be when it comes to finding a high quality joint Master`s programme such as IMSE, in which students from around the globe are prepared to become the next generation of service graduates. Coming to Europe as a student can open up a whole new world, full of unique opportunities, memorable moments and life-changing experiences.

The Erasmus Mundus IMSE programme is jointly offered by three European universities with an excellent track record in service engineering. Because Tilburg, Stuttgart and Crete have created this programme in close collaboration with its associated members and industry partners, this will enhance your European experience even further.
