The University of Gabes (جامعة فابس in Arabic) is a public university located in southern Tunisia with headquarters in Gabes. The university is oriented primarily toward Information Technology, but is also the home of the famous Ecole Nationale d'Ingénieurs de Gabès or National Engineering School of Gabe, commonly called "ENIG." This department provides high quality engineering education, notably in Chemical Engineering.

The current president is Mr. Mabrouk Montacer.

The university, in common with other Tunisian universities, has not one central Campus but mini-campuses for each field of study. The university does have two large campuses:

The largest campus of the university, located in a somewhat isolated southern part of the city near Erriadh. Close to this campus is the largest sports complex in Gabes, and the Saharan Montains are visible. The campus is not far from the main road leading to the tourist city of Matamata, and many students organize trips to Matamata on weekends.

This campus is in the heart of the city, and contains the University Cultural Center.

The university has another important campus in the city of Medenine, south of Gabes.
