Electronics Engineering

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 organisational 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 speciality field or to strengthen their interdisciplinary competencies by choosing different elective study paths

Why @KTU?

Master+

Master+ model offers either to masterpiece in the specialisation or to strengthen managerial/interdisciplinary skills by choosing individual set of competencies required for career.

 

Career

Student’s competences:
– Applies deeper knowledge of electronics engineering science and research methods;
– Recognises problems, formulates them and applies solutions;
– Performs experiment’s planning and its progress;
– Conduct research activities applying modern technologies.

Student’s skills:
– Able to solve unknown problems that are not clearly defined;
– Able to develop new methods;
– Able to plan or conduct analytical, modelling or experimental research;
– Able to apply available knowledge and experience in generation of ideas and making of decisions.

 

 

You may become

– Implementation of solutions for electronic systems, planning of their stages and even distribution of tasks.

– Implementation of important systemic solutions, planning of tasks and activities at the level of departments/divisions.

– Planning of research, conduction of research activities applying analytical, modelling and experimental methods.

– Organisation of the company’s activities and implementation of its objectives for sustainable development and sustainable society.

 

 

MA+ competences

Master+ is a unique model within a chosen MSc programme

The Master+ model offers either to masterpiece in the chosen discipline by choosing the Field Expert track or to strengthen the interdisciplinary skills in addition to the main discipline by choosing the Interdisciplinary Expert track providing a choice of a different competence to compliment the chosen discipline and achieve a competitive advantage in one’s career.

Students of these study programmes can choose between the path of Field Expert and Interdisciplinary Expert. Selection is made in the academic information system. Each path (competence) consists of three subjects (18 credits) allocated as follows: 1 year 1 semester (autumn) – first subject (6 credits), 1 year 2 semester (spring) – second subject (6 credits), 2 year 3 semester – third subject (6 credits). A student, who chooses a path of the Field Expert, deepens knowledge and strengthens skills in the main field of studies. The one, who chooses a path of the Interdisciplinary Expert, acquires knowledge and skills in a different area or field of studies. Competence provides a choice of alternative additional subjects.

  • Field Expert (profound knowledge and skills in the area, required for solution of scientific research tasks);
  • Interdisciplinary Expert:
    (fields of different knowledge and skills are combined for solution of specific tasks);

Acquisition of the competence is certified by the issue of KTU certificate and entry in the appendix to the Master’s diploma. In addition, students can acquire an international certificate (details are provided next to each competence).

Competences are implemented by KTU lecturers – experts in their area – and high level business and public sector organizations; their employees deliver lectures, submit topics for the student’s theses, placement-oriented tasks for the projects, etc.
