A Lithuanian diploma is recognized in all countries which have signed the Lisbon Convention. There are three modes of studies: full time, part-time and evening studines.

Higher Education Institutions

There are two types of higher education institutions in Lithuania: universities and colleges. Studies are conducted according to the study programmes registered by the Ministry of Education and Science.

The duration of studies is 3-4 years. University studies are organised in three cycles: first cycle – under-graduate (Bachelor), second cycle – graduate (Master’s

or specialized professional) and third cycle – postgraduate (doctoral, residency or postgraduate art). Integrated studies are aimed at acquiring qualification of the second cycle, when studies of the first and second cycles are combined in succession.

Academic calendar

The academic year is divided into two semesters: autumn (beginning in September) and spring (beginning in February). Each semester usually covers 20 weeks. The last 4 weeks are allotted to examination sessions.

Admission procedure

Marking system Definition PASS 10 (excellent) Excellent performance, outstanding knowledge and skills 9 (very good) Strong performance, good knowledge and skills 8 (good) Above the average performance, knowledge and skills 7 (highly Average performance, knowledge and skills satisfactory) with inessential shortcomings 6 (satisfactory) Below average performance, knowledge and skills with substantial shortcomings 5 (sufficient) Knowledge and skills meet minimum criteria shortcomings FAIL* 4 (insufficient) 3 (highly Knowledge and skills do not meet minimum insufficient) criteria / below minimum criteria 2 (poor) 1 (very poor) *Failed exams (marks from 1 to 4) must be retaken.

Every course in a subject should be assessed by one of three means: examination, graded credit test or credit test (pass/fail).

Either of the three can be oral or in writing. An examination is evaluated by a mark. A graded credit test is similar to an examination, only less time is allowed for preparation, and scope of the material covered is usually much narrower than in an examination. As for credit test, they are either pass or fail, and even less time is given for preparation. Only in exceptional cases students may choose the means of assessment. Usually it is unequivocally determined by the curriculum.

ECTS CREDITS

The European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) is the only credit system which has been successfully tested and used across Europe. It is a student-centred system based on the student workload required to achieve the objectives of a programme, objectives preferably specified in terms of the learning outcomes and competences to be acquired. ECTS is based on the principle that 60 credits measure the workload of a full-time student during one academic year. The student workload of a full-time study programme in Europe amounts in most cases to around 1500-1800 hours per year and in those cases one credit stands for around 25 to 30 working hours. Credits in ECTS can only be obtained after successful completion of the work required and appropriate assessment of the learning outcomes achieved. Learning outcomes are sets of competences, expressing what the student will know, under- stand or be able to do after completion of a process of learning, long or short.

Student workload in ECTS consists of the time required to complete all planned learning activities such as attending lectures, seminars, independent and private study, preparation of projects and examinations. Credits are allocated to all educational components of a study programme (such as modules, courses, placements, etc.) and reflect the quantity of work. Each component requires to achieve its specific objectives or learning outcomes in relation to the total quantity of work necessary to complete a full year of study success-fully. The performance of the student is documented by a local/national grade. The ECTS grading scale ranks the students on a statistical basis. Therefore, statistical data on student performance is a prerequisite for applying the ECTS grading system. At Utena UAS each training programme takes three years of studies (full time studies) and four years of studies (part time studies). Each year has a workload of 60 ECTS credits. Consequently, the whole curriculum (three years) amounts to 180 ECTS credits. One ECTS credit is the equivalent of 60 study hours of the student.

ABOUT LITHUANIA

Lithuania is a new and active member of the European Union (since May 1, 2004) and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (since March 29, 2004). It is the only Baltic country with a tradition of nearly eight hundred years of statehood. Its name was first mentioned almost one thousand years ago, in 1009. Wedged on the dividing line between Western and Eastern civilizations, Lithuania battled dramatically for its independence and survival. Once in the Middle Ages, Lithuania was the largest state in the entire Eastern Europe, crafts and overseas trade prospered.

In 1579, Vilnius University, an important scientific and education a centre on a European level, was founded. In the 16th century, Lithuania adopted its First, Second and Third Statutes. The Statutes not only were the backbone of the legislative system of the country, they also had a major impact on the legislation of other European states of the time. Despite losing its independence, Lithuania managed to retain its Third Statute in effect for as long as 250 years, and it was instrumental in the preservation of the national and civic self- awareness of the public. The Constitution of Lithuania-Poland, together with the French Constitution, both adopted in 1791, were the first constitutions in Europe.

Vilnius has always been a multinational, multilingual, and multicultural European city. Trying to position itself as an informal political leader of the Baltic countries, it shares its experience in democratic development with other countries of the post-Soviet bloc, and takes an active part in the EU renewal process.

UTENA - THE LAND OF LAKES

The City of Utena

The current coat of arms of Utena was approved by decree of the President of the Republic of Lithuania on 26 September 1996. Utena (pop. 33.1 thousand), the present capital of the Aukštaitija ethnographic region, was first mentioned in written sources in 1261. In 1599 the town was granted a trade privilege. Destroyed during the Nordic War, Utena started reviving in the 19th century when the Kaunas-Daugavpils highway and, somewhat later, a branch of the Panevėžys- Švenčionys narrow gauge railway were built.

Utena started developing at a rapid pace after Lithuania became an independent state in 1918. In several years, 400 houses were constructed and around 30 km of streets were

built. A market place housed 34 shops and 3 mills were in operation. The oldest building of Utena that survived till the present is the Post-office Station in the Classicist style (1835). The Russian tsar Nicholas I with his son Alexander, the Russian painter Ilya Repin, the famous French writer Honore de Balzac visited the station and exchanged their horses here. Presently, the building of the Post-office houses Art School and Picture Gallery. Utena boasts the nice Ascension Church of the 19th century in Neo-Baroque style, whose interior is decorated with valuable works of the Italian school painters and local masters. Utena region had plenty of folk artists who would sculpture the crucifix. The Utena Local Lore Museum stores a rich collection of wood carvers’ works, which has been collected since 1929. The oldest sculptures made by cross makers date back to the 17th-19th centuries.

Utena is crossed by the rivulets of Utenėlė, Krašuona, Vieša and Rašė, and adorned with two of the District’s 186 lakes, the tranquil Dauniškis and Vyžuonaitis. The Kloviniai Pond and the Hill of Wedding, where folk artists put up sculptures representing scenes from the old Lithuanian wedding ceremonies, attract crowds of holidaymakers. Utena
