Language(s) of instruction: Lithuanian/ English
Degree and/or Qualification awarded: Bachelor of Mathematical Sciences
Mathematics and Applications of Mathematics
Good knowledge of mathematics is a universal skill, which can be applied in a variety of fields, such as finance, engineering, information technologies, science, or teaching. While there are mathematical programmes of various kinds in Lithuanian universities, our programme is the only one in the country which focuses on mathematics as such, not only on the ways to apply it. By doing so, we offer our students the distinctive university experience, which is to be a part of an institution emphasizing the importance of reflection.
It's worth studying because:
- programe gives wide mathematical knowledge and develops mathematical techniques using skills in the fields of finance, engineering, IT;
- the teachers of the programme are one of the best specialistsof the field in the country;
- availability of Minor Study: to get additional teacher qualification;
Career opportunities:
Graduates can work at the science and education institutions, industry, agencies of information and social investigations, management institutions. Graduates can also pursue a career in spheres where their mathematical knowledge, abstract and analytical type of thinking and ability to use specialized software are needed.
International studies and internship opportunities:
Vilnius University encourages the use of various opportunities for studying at foreign universities, allowing students to gain intercultural experience, develop and evaluate their competences, establish contacts abroad, and open wider career opportunities.
