In the Baltic port city — the most distinct school in the country for maritime studies and marine science.
Klaipėda · Maritime, engineering, general programmes
Klaipėda University sits in Lithuania's only port city, and that geography defines it: maritime studies, marine science, port logistics and marine technology.
Beyond those it also runs engineering, arts and health programmes. The city is smaller than Vilnius or Kaunas, offering a quieter student experience.
