Overview

KTU master’s study programme in Electronics Engineering is one of its kind in Lithuania. It is based on the use of theoretical knowledge at the systemic level, the application of contemporary methods to design hardware/software architectures, and on research-based development of the most advanced technological solutions in close cooperation with industry.

Electronics engineering is a component of innovation and technological progress that drives physical and functional changes in electronic systems. It is a fusion between design methods, modelling tools, and the development of the manufacturing process. MSc Electronics Engineering studies provide the graduates with the theoretical basis and design methods needed for the development of electronic systems and intellectual components for communications, computers, programming, software engineering, control and other electronic and electrical energy systems.

During these studies, you will develop practical and organizational skills through project, design, laboratory exercises and management studies. Scientific research experience and the in-depth knowledge conveyed by the curriculum will set you on track to a successful career in the global market.

• You will be taught by the internationally acclaimed experts in embedded systems design and analysis research;
• Access to high-tech laboratories;
• A unique to Lithuania MA+ study model allows students either to aim for excellence in a chosen specialty field or to strengthen their interdisciplinary competencies by choosing different elective study paths.

Values
