Career prospects

Graduates may work in electronics, telecommunications, and other high-tech companies or state institutions specializing in the licensing, supervision, and regulation of telecommunications.  

They may also pursue scientific research careers at universities or other research institutions. 

Telecommunications engineer / telecommunications network specialist / network operations engineer / telecommunications infrastructure manager / embedded systems engineer / embedded systems engineer / electronic systems developer / systems integration engineer / technical solutions engineer / IT/telecom service manager

From scientific labs to high-tech companies

Assoc. Prof. Dr Sandra Pralgauskaitė  

Electronics and Telecommunications Technology Master's studies is a research-based program that provides engineering education in electronics. The study program is continually improved, taking into account the latest innovations, to ensure that graduates can successfully work in leading electronics and telecommunications companies. 

Almost half of the study time is devoted to research projects and the Final thesis, which can be carried out in both scientific laboratories and high-tech companies. A flexible study schedule allows for development not only in the academic but also in the professional field. 

Small groups, more access to expert lecturers

Domantas Vizbaras

This course is strongly focused on telecommunications technologies, engineering, and microwave physics. Compared to Bachelor’s studies, the student groups are much smaller, so students have more time to interact with the course lecturers – experts in their fields – and to learn from their experience. During the studies, excellent conditions are provided in research laboratories to delve into your chosen topic, become familiar with scientific methodology, and enjoy spending time carrying out experiments.
