Computer science and software in Lithuania

Computing is one of the fastest-growing fields for international students in Lithuania. Software engineering, computer science, data science and cyber security all run in English.

Fields

What programmes exist?

Software engineering, computer science, information systems, data science and cyber security are the main areas, with English-taught options at both bachelor's and master's level.

Vilnius and Kaunas are where the technology companies and technical universities cluster. Placements and part-time work are more visible in those two cities.

Some programmes lean theoretical (computer science), others applied (software engineering). We work out which suits you by reading the curriculum.
