| Entry qualification | Undergraduate diploma (or higher) Bachelor’s degree or its equivalent in Physics, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Materials Technology, Biotechnology, Electronics Engineering or related fields. In order to qualify, at least 60% of studied subjects have to be from Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry, Electrical, Electronics, or Optical Engineering, Materials Technologies, Nanotechnologies, or related fields. The cumulative weighted average evaluation of these subjects has to be at least 60% of the maximum possible and all evaluations have to be positive (passed). Additional points could be obtained for scientific publications and scientific conference presentations in the fields relevant for the study programme as proved by the bibliographic references. The candidates who meet the above-listed criteria will be invited to a remote motivational interview. During the interview, the candidate’s determination to study in a science-based Master’s degree programme is assessed. If the interview is deemed unsatisfactory, the candidate will not be invited to study. In addition, all applicants have to fulfil the general admission requirements. Important: additional country-specific requirements are set only for the following countries which you can find HERE (STEP 2) The entry qualification documents are accepted in the following languages: English / Lithuanian. Often you can get a suitable transcript from your school. If this is not the case, you will need official translations along with verified copies of the original.
