Biotechnology is one of the most rapidly growing field in both industry and research. That is why graduates of this program will continue to be busy for a very long time.

For those who have chosen this study program, creative and analytical years await: you will be solving biotechnological problems, designing technological equipment, creating and developing new products. While designing high quality biotechnological products, you will be combining skills and knowledge of bioprocesses, engineering, and living cells.

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.
