Medical Physics

Can the application of physics concepts, theories and methods save lives? It certainly can.

The teaching curriculum of KTU MSc in Medical Physics focuses on the use of ionising radiation for treatment and diagnosis of oncological diseases, and protection of individuals and environment from unreasonable radiation.

This study programme is implemented together with the Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, is adjusted to the medical physics study programmes around the globe and recognised by the International Organisation of Medical Physicists.

KTU MSc in Medical Physics is one of the few programmes of this kind delivered in English in Europe (except for the UK universities).

State-of-the-art research facilities and equipment available for KTU students’ research
Hands-on experience while working together with professionals in hospitals and medical care centres
EC directive 2013/59/EURATOM regulated curriculum

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.

Chemical Technology and Engineering

It is safe to say that technology and innovation are the driving forces behind the progress of humankind. However, for that we need creative and well-versed engineering professionals who would understand more than plain terminology. Are you one of them – interested in chemistry, innovation, technology, and are constantly thinking of new, original ideas? Then BSc in Chemical Technology and Engineering at KTU is a perfect choice for you!

The demand for chemical engineering specialists is never diminishing and their work is valued because they are industrial innovators who are capable of designing processes and managing technological systems. As humanity’s need for new products is always growing, skilled chemical engineers are needed to analyze the trends in demand for chemical products, expand the knowledge and influence public opinions in the field of engineering.

The curriculum for Chemical Technology and Engineering program is designed to combine theoretical knowledge with technological skills, in-depth expertise of designing and carrying out industrial processes, and laboratory practice.

To cater to the interests and abilities of future graduates, the program is tailored to offer specializations in technologies of inorganic or organic materials. Modern laboratories with the newest equipment are available for students to uses and practice hands-on skills for modelling and designing processes.

According to job market statistics, the employment rate for chemical engineers is one of the highest – up to 70% of them are employed right after graduation.
