During the first year of studying, students deepen their knowledge in programming technologies, designing and analyzing algorithms, fundamentals of software engineering, designing and modelling IT systems. That is, students get knowledge which is necessary for IT specialist of any field and increase their general competences as a developer of software systems and designer of solutions in informatics. Since the second year, students study topics on artificial intelligence, such as data processing and analysis, image processing and analysis, machine learning algorithms, deep learning. They also learn to design and develop AI-based solutions and systems.
Excellent knowledge of programming technologies, artificial intelligence algorithms, practical skills in creating artificial intelligence solutions.
Upon graduation, students are able to apply the practical skills of programming, algorithms and systems implementation to realize cost-effective and human-assisted intelligent systems that solve real-world problems and create a sustainable artificial intelligence ecosystem.
When developing IT solutions, companies are increasingly faced with tasks that require knowledge and competencies in the field of artificial intelligence: image recognition, object classification, process structure identification, process optimization, exception analysis and more. Currently, there is a particular shortage of people who are professionals in application development and at the same time are able to understand the potential of artificial intelligence and use it to create the final IT product. According to the statistics of the World Economic Forum, the demand for such specialists in the labor market is currently particularly high and will only increase in the future. The salaries of such employees remain among the highest in both Lithuania and Europe.
This program enrolls students who demonstrate high academic performance and are particularly fond of mathematics and programming. Good motivation leads to a creative and results-oriented environment that helps to perfectly absorb the necessary knowledge and skills.
While studying, students have opportunity to gain practical experience in leading Lithuanian and foreign companies which implement solutions in software engineering, information technology and artificial intelligence fields.
Are you interested in creating real products and services while studying? It is now possible to test yourself by getting involved in a product development project (PDP). During the project, you will work in teams, collaborating with KTU researchers and social partners. While solving current, relevant problems you will improve your teamwork, project management, and problem-solving skills, deepen professional knowledge and expand your career opportunities.
Artificial Intelligence study programme was awarded the Investors’ Spotlight quality label by the Investors’ Forum association and the Foreign Direct Investment Development Agency Invest Lithuania. The programme has been recognised for its excellent relevance to market needs and professionally developed study content.
