This special track of Linguistics provides students with an in-depth foundation in the contemporary trends of linguistics and cross-linguistic research methods. The focus is on training autonomous linguists, who are capable of creatively addressing language use-related issues and are able to use the acquired linguistic competences in their research and/or teaching career at educational and/or research institutions.

When I reflect on my time at Vilnius University, I can confidently say that it has helped me become a better teacher in many ways. Through the linguistics seminars, I was challenged to explore areas I had not considered in detail before, and the literature and culture seminars provided me with new perspectives, enabling me to take a closer and more critical look at literary texts and cultural phenomena. In my role as a teacher, I have been able to revise my teaching practice using these new values and develop a greater sense of confidence. In particular, I have been able to create more critical assessments and formulate new discussion topics for my students, providing them with fresh and interesting ideas to engage with. I believe that these are the ripples of studying at Vilnius University, and I am grateful for the knowledge and skills that I gained during my time there.
