Kaunas University of Technology (KTU) – the largest technical university in the Baltic States! Being one of the most dynamic schools of higher education in Lithuania, KTU often becomes a research and study leader in various fields. KTU is situated in Kaunas, the second largest city of Lithuania, which is a significant centre of industry, transport, science and culture. Dating back to 1922, the University has developed a great potential for studies and research, and became visible in the international arena.

FACULTY OF ELECTRICAL AND CONTROL ENGINEERING
The Faculty of Electrical Engineering was founded in 1947. In 1988–1993 it was called the Faculty of Energetics. In 1967 the Faculty of Automation was founded. In 1993 these two faculties were joined together, and so the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Automation was formed. In 2005 under the resolution of the Senate its name was changed into the Faculty of Electrical and Control Engineering. Full-time academic and research staff of 79 employees includes 15 professors and 41 associate professors. 910 students (including 130 master students and 380 extramural bachelor students) are enrolled in the Faculty.
