Economics
If we could explain economics in one sentence, it would sound something like this: “Economics is a never-ending study on how our world works”. Indeed, we always look for answers about how society, governments, or various businesses make decisions based on how to distribute limited resources and get the most out of it.
As an economy specialist, you are taking over a crucial role by making sure you are behind all of those decisions, forecasting economic matters, and proposing new, innovative solutions.
While studying, you will be able to choose from one of the 18 blocks of competencies – to specialise and gain the competitive knowledge needed in this particular block of the labour market.
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.
