Description

Kaunas University of Technology marked its 100 years anniversary on February 16th, 2022n and is the best illustration of all that Lithuania can offer in higher education and research. One of the largest technological universities in the Baltic region, it delivers studies, scientific research and provides R&D services in all fields of science. We believe in human side of technology. We educate well-rounded engineers, knowledgeable not only in technical, but also in humanistic and social aspects of innovation. The so called “soft” dimension of humanities, social sciences and arts is included into all study programmes, making the University graduates ready for the global challenges of tomorrow.

Speaking the universal language of science, KTU invites people from all cultures and backgrounds to join our open-minded academic community. We are looking for curious and motivated minds willing to offer new insights, which would expand and challenge our understanding of the world around us.

Around 10 thousand students are studying at KTU and 2 thousand staff members are involved in the processes. 900 of them are members of the academic staff, working in the fields of studies and research.

In 2021, KTU researchers took part in more than 55 international and 140 national research projects. 48 projects of EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation “Horizon 2020” are funded during the period 2014 – 2020 at KTU.

For almost 100 years, KTU has sustained the tradition of nurturing talented independent thinkers. In Kaunas, KTU is the founder of two integrated science, studies and business centres-valleys – Santaka and Nemunas, where state-of-the art facilities are available for science, studies and commercial purposes.

Situated right in the geographical centre of Europe, at the crossroad between East and West, North and South, small on the global scale, Lithuania is the largest nation of the Baltic States.
