Registration Opens for Vilnius University’s 'Student for a Day' Event

Vilnius University (VU) invites school students and anyone interested in higher education to take part in its traditional 'Student for a Day' event, taking place on 12–16 October. Registration is now open.

The event offers participants a unique opportunity to experience university life firsthand and get to know VU from the inside — from study programmes and academic subjects to extracurricular activities, university spaces, lecturers and the wider VU community.

As part of the event, participants can attend a range of lectures and practical sessions and experience what it is like to study at Vilnius University. However, places for 'Student for a Day' activities are limited, so participants are encouraged to register responsibly. All activities will take place according to Lithuanian local time. Registration is available here.

Experience Nursing Skills in Practice

One of the featured sessions will introduce participants to essential nursing skills, giving them an opportunity to try practical activities themselves. The session is designed to provide a closer look at the hands-on experiences that future nurses encounter during their studies. The session will be held in English and based on the content of VU’s English-taught Nursing study programme.

Participants will also have the opportunity to learn more about the new Bachelor’s study programme in Nursing at VU, including its structure and opportunities, and take part in a Q&A session.

From Nobel Prize Week to the Physics Classroom

Another session will explore the latest achievements in physics and the ways in which today’s scientific discoveries can become tomorrow’s study material.

Taking place shortly after Nobel Prize Week, the class will feature presentations by groups of students on some of the most notable recent discoveries in physics. The session will offer an opportunity to discuss current developments in science and see how they connect with university studies.

The course is part of the studies of students in Light Engineering, High-Tech Physics, and Business and Physics programmes.
