SoG2. To work in a group, communicate with colleagues and specialists from neighboring fields, be a leader and to argue one’s position.
SoG3. To integrate innovations of technological sciences with basics of business and management and knowledge of social and humanitarian sciences.
Personal skills and competencies
AG1. To find business partners, make and maintain contacts.
AG2. To work individually, creatively, responsibly and with motivation, plan one’s time and maintain and improve professional competence through lifelong learning.
Activities of teaching and learning:
Implementation of Avionics study programme is achieved using teaching and learning methods for study material acquisition which accentuate the leadership of the lecturer and are oriented towards the student.
Teaching methods applied for solving aeronautics engineering problems during studies are based on solving problem tasks, individual and team work and training using laboratory equipment.
Methods of assessment of learning achievements:
In order to ensure the achievement of intended learning outcomes, consistent assessment of student proficiency is performed and it is determined, whether the achieved study results (proficiency level) meet the intended learning outcomes of the study programme.
 In order to assess student proficiency level, skills and knowledge the following methods will be used: ‘written or oral examination’, ‘mid-term test’, ‘task solving’, ‘report on laboratory works and it’s defense’, ‘oral and mockup  presentation’, ‘individual or team-work project report’, ‘practice report’, and ‘Final thesis and it’s defense’.
Framework:
Study subjects (modules), practical training:
The scope of avionics study programme core is 159 credits.
The intended learning outcomes of the programme are achieved by appropriately choosing study modules. Three general parts of the programme core may be distinguished into:
Modules for knowledge and skills in electronics and electrical engineering (52 credits):
C Programming Language; Electrical Engineering; Discrete Mathematics; Digital Devices; Fundamentals of Electronics; C++ Programing Language; Signals and Circuits 1; Electrical Machines; Theory and Practice of Measurement; Signals and Circuits 2.

Specialisations:
No
Optional courses:
Student of the Avionics student programme may choose from the proposed general university modules which provide the possibility to study a chosen foreign language (English 1,2; German 1,2 and French 1,2 providing 3 credits in both 1 and 2 terms), and Politics and Technologies and Evolution of materials and technologies for a holistic understanding (3 credits in Term 1). In the fifth and sixth terms the student may freely choose modules of any study field, the amount of which does not exceed 8 credits.
Distinctive features of a study programme:
Avionics study programme is a single study programme of this profile in Lithuania. The programme is oriented towards aircraft avionics equipment and system maintenance and solving uncomplex design tasks of aircraft avionics components. In the avionics study programme, knowledge of fundamental electronics, automatics and mechanics is provided and appropriate skills are developed which allow the graduates to fill various positions in teh job market.
