A CERN accelerator in Kaunas

Every year, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research, aka CERN, organises four accelerator schools in different countries. The one-school course lasts two weeks and attracts students from all over the world. We are glad to announce our partnership with CERN to organise an accelerator school in Kaunas this autumn. 

KTU scientific conferences 

The University organises scientific conferences, seminars and other events with the participation of the local representatives of research and academic institutions, State, business and industry institutions, professionals and researchers from abroad.

KTU journals

One of the main KTU priorities is the international recognition achieved by development and transfer of advanced knowledge and future technologies. Therefore, KTU provides possibilities to researchers from around the world to publish their research results in KTU scientific journals.

A good place to develop

One of the first Lithuanian computers “Santaka” was created at KTU back in 1986. This served as the stepping stone for the Lithuanian gaming scene, enabling enthusiasts to create their own video games.

To this day, KTU stays loyal to its base and offers courses for game development while also celebrating technological achievements in gaming festivals.

Our intellectual property protection

Intellectual property management and protection is an important part of the innovation promotion process and successful technology transfer. KTU uses the intellectual property and technology transfer management system that defines the strategy, principles of inventions’ results disclosure and other intellectual activities, and the principles of financial benefits sharing.

KTU is a great medium for inventions

Our professor Arminas Ragauskas is one of the first people from Eastern and Central Europe to get nominated for the European Inventor of the Year award. Alongside his colleagues, the KTU academic invented a non-invasive head pulse measurement device. This technology enables brain pressure measurement without surgical invasion.

The self-assembling materials developed by KTU scientists have set a new World record by increasing solar cells' efficiency. Two patent applications have been filed for the protection of intellectual property elements created by KTU chemists and "Helmholtz-Zentrum" physicists.

ViLim Ball technology created by a Lithuanian startup, Fidens, reduces uncontrollable handshaking, which is one of the symptoms of essential tremor. The technology is effective in 7 out of 10 cases. It can also be used to alleviate morning stiffness of joints for people living with rheumatoid arthritis.

The KTU student team BeltaMom has developed a belt for pregnant women that tracks the fetus's condition from the 2nd trimester of pregnancy. It can also be used to track the baby's heart rate, number of movements, and weight.

Research group involvement

Research groups at KTU are devoted to conducting the international level scientific research on the topics which contribute to the sustainable regional development and ensure that studies at KTU are research-based. Research groups are active in cooperation with business and talent development.

Further development of competences

Learning, possibilities to grow, the ability to develop professional skills, while also acquiring an additional qualification, are important in any career. KTU aims to ensure the competences of the researchers by providing conditions to participate in various events, workshops, project activities and international networks.

From the Food Institute and the Institute of Architecture and Construction established in the 1950s, to the Health Telematics Science Institute, delivering solutions to NASA – frontier and applied research born at KTU laboratories is changing the lives of global society.
