ABOUT UNIVERSITY
1 January 1991 is the day of the official start of Klaipeda University's activities. This is the date that granted the city of Klaipeda the status of a university city and that opened up more opportunities for the region of Western Lithuania and its residents to pursue a university education and a career in science.
Today, Klaipeda University is a dynamic, growing multidisciplinary university that over more than three decades has refined the directions of scientific and academic activities. The University boasts two research institutes: the Institute of Baltic Region History and Archaeology and Marine Research Institute, where a large number of researchers concentrate on research and simultaneously teach students. The three faculties – those of Marine Technology and Natural Sciences, of Social Sciences and Humanities, and of Health Sciences – are the divisions where academic spirit predominates and scientific projects are developed.
KU sets itself an ambitious goal of becoming the leader of universities in the Baltic region. In the world of science, the qualification and reputation of marine researchers working at KU is reflected in the Shanghai Ranking (Academic Ranking of World Universities): in accordance with it, KU is among 200 universities in the world best in the area of oceanographic sciences.
Every year, 3,000 bachelors, masters, and doctoral students study at KU. Over the three decades, close to 40,000 graduates have completed their studies here: teachers, business managers, politicians, and civil servants, scientists, nurses, radiologists, journalists, and others.
