Have the following personal and social abilities:
ACG1. Ability to effectively work independently and in a team, be the leader of the team that consists of members of various study fields and levels;
ACG2. Ability to know how to communicate with the engineering community and the general public at national and international levels;
ACG3. Holistic understanding of the effects of engineering solutions on the society and the environment, ability to comply with professional ethics and standards of engineering, understanding of the responsibility for the engineering activities.
ACG4. Very good knowledge on project management and business aspects, understanding of the links between technological solutions and their economic consequences.

Activities of teaching and learning:
The program is designed to create a student-friendly learning environment that emphasizes the work of lecturers and encourages the acquisition of new knowledge based on tasks and research. Such forms of teaching and learning as problem-based teaching and problem-based tasks, case studies, individual and group work, "brain storm", presentations, course projects, etc. are foreseen. The program provides student-oriented workshops that are based on group work, developing practical and social skills. Course projects and individual assignments help students to independently analyze and solve problems of computer engineering. Students independently prepare for intermediate and final examinations, under the supervision of a lecturer, prepare the final master's thesis.
Methods of assessment of learning achievements:
The student's achievements are assessed using a diagnostic (to determine the student's achievements and progress after the completion of the topic or part of the course), the formative (continuously carried out through the study process), cumulative (carried out by aggregating the evaluations of the results obtained during intermediate examination), and a summary (formally confirming the student's achievements in studies at the end of the semester). The results of the study program and study subjects during the semester are evaluated through intermediate examination (colloquiums, oral and written presentation of group and individual works). Through collegiate assessment, students are examined by a commission of lecturers and / or engineers - academics, social partners.

Specialisations: No

Optional courses:
Possibility to choose additional courses in the same study field, it is possible to choose courses in the other study field and topics of course projects.
Distinctive features of a study programme:
Other Lithuanian universities do not have the study program "Computer Engineering". This program is taught by representatives of social partners who have long-term professional experience in the field of computer engineering, which allows to highlight the latest and most relevant engineering issues and solutions in the field of preparation of a competitive specialists.
Access to professional activity or further study:
Graduates of the Computer Engineering study program will be able to successfully work as engineers, heads of engineering departments, designers and carry out expert activities:
in electronics sector companies: “Accel elektronics”, “Amalva”, “Arevita”, “Atea”, “Axis Industries”, “Bitė Lithuania”, “Elfa Distrelec”, “Elgerta”, “Elsis”, “Esemda”, “Fima”, Center for Physical Sciences and Technology”, "IBM Lithuania", "Kitron", "Teltonika" as well as in state organizations, banks, etc.
Also, the graduate will be able to create and develop his own business in the fields of electronics and information technology.
