Programme overview
The aim of this study programme is to prepare highly competent information technology specialists, who can develop intelligent software systems applying machine learning, image recognition, data processing and data analysis algorithms.
The Artificial Intelligence study programme is for those future professionals who are willing to apply most recent currently developing technologies, who are interested in developing AI based solutions. This study programme will provide learners not only with the skills and knowledge on how to apply AI algorithms; its graduates will also possess deep fundamental understanding of AI algorithms, which will enable them to determine algorithms efficiency, to develop hybrid AI models using image and language processing and machine learning, as well as choosing appropriate architectural parameters for systems aimed at implementing intelligent solutions.
Funding opportunities
All international students automatically become candidates to receive the Scholarship for International Students, which is assigned for first-year Bachelor or Master students with strong academic records and motivation.
The residents of European Union countries and the global citizens of Lithuanian origin can apply for state-funded study places. This means that all the applicants, who fall into one of the aforementioned categories, will participate in the general admission’s competition for state-funded study places and get the chance to study free of charge, depending on their admission score.
Campus life
The main KTU Campus is within walking distance from the city centre. In the campus, university sports halls and courts, dormitories, shops and recreational areas are all nearby. KTU boasts the active student community, with 6 art societies and over 20 students’ organisations. Our students can choose from 100 weekly sports classes, and join one of 20 sports teams. All of this is free of charge.
Over 40 thousand students study in Kaunas, and of these, around 10% are international students. Lush parks, lively squares, cosy cafes and buzzing cultural life make Kaunas attractive not only as a travel destination but also as a place to live. In 2022, Kaunas will become a European Capital of Culture.
Programme structure
During the first year of studying, students deepen their knowledge in programming technologies, designing and analyzing algorithms, fundamentals of software engineering, designing and modelling IT systems. That is, students get knowledge which is necessary for IT specialist of any field and increase their general competences as a developer of software systems and designer of solutions in informatics. Since the second year, students study topics on artificial intelligence, such as data processing and analysis, image processing and analysis, machine learning algorithms, deep learning. They also learn to design and develop AI-based solutions and systems.
Excellent knowledge of programming technologies, artificial intelligence algorithms, practical skills in creating artificial intelligence solutions.
Upon graduation, students are able to apply the practical skills of programming, algorithms and systems implementation to realize cost-effective and human-assisted intelligent systems that solve real-world problems and create a sustainable artificial intelligence ecosystem.
This program enrolls students who demonstrate high academic performance and are particularly fond of mathematics and programming. Good motivation leads to a creative and results-oriented environment that helps to perfectly absorb the necessary knowledge and skills.
While studying, students have opportunity to gain practical experience in leading Lithuanian and foreign companies which implement solutions in software engineering, information technology and artificial intelligence fields.
