Dear @Amir365,

Welcome to the Wefugees Community and thank you for reaching out to us.

I am not a higher educational system expert, but I tried to do some research. First of all, I would recommend you to try to have your bachelor degree recognised in Germany. Please see this official website for more information on the procedure. In case you will face difficulties regarding the recognition, there are even options to enroll in a master's programme without a bachelor. This is, however, not the typical path and is only possible in certain subjects and programmes. As far as I understood, long years of work experience and expertise is usually required if you don't have a (recognised) bachelor degree. 

I hope these information are helpful and please don't hesitate to get back to us with any further questions.

All the best,

Meike
