| Entry Qualification | To this programme applicants are accepted from the fields of: Mechanical Engineering, Aeronautical Engineering, Transport Engineering. |
Transport engineering has long gone beyond the traditional perception that it is merely the design, development and maintenance of vehicles. With the advance of technology, the designs of transport engineers are also rapidly improving, demonstrating a strong emphasis on environmental challenges.
The products designed and created by transport engineers are getting faster and more lightweight as well as more environmentally friendly. These include not only vehicles, but also robots, new forms of energy, state-of-the-art security technologies or even smart materials.
This study program is aimed at providing the latest special knowledge on technological science, developing the ability to analyze and rationally evaluate problems. Such professionals will be able not only to conduct research, but also to solve real-world technological problems in transport engineering.
The Master of Transport Engineering course offers one of the following four specializations – Automobile Transport Engineering, Railway Transport Engineering, Transport Engineering Management, Transport Machinery and Equipment, Maritime Transport Engineering and Logistics.
Automobile Transport Engineering. The automobile industry is one of the largest and most important branches of the world economy.
Engineers in this field work in a variety of industries. They not only design, develop and manufacture automobiles, but are also actively involved in their safety tests, enhance the visual appeal of vehicles or seek ways to reduce pollution.
These days, the focus is not only on the speed of the car, but also on its sustainability and integration of advanced modern technologies. At the same time, the development of alternative energy vehicles is highly prioritized,
Technological advances and the search for more environmentally friendly and safer options for people mean that the transport sector is undergoing major change. It is hardly surprising that professionals in this field are in demand all over the world.
Graduates of this specialization will be familiar with automotive vehicle theory, construction, design, and operation.
Such specialists will be able to perform road accident analysis, have knowledge of road traffic organization and management, will be able to model, analyze various engineering processes, develop various engineering systems or improve technologies, research and solve problems related to car design and operation.
Railway transport engineering. Rail transport in the world is currently undergoing a revival. Train travel is not only cost-effective, but also more energy efficient, often safer than other modes of transport, and more environmentally friendly. Railways are regarded as a vital component of an integrated transport system for a sustainable society of the future, therefore the need for specialists with expert knowledge of railway infrastructure, vehicles, traffic and its management is only growing.
Graduates of this specialization will be able to research, diagnose, forecast and optimize the machinery, equipment and technological processes of rail transport and its infrastructure. Such engineers will be knowledgeable about the dynamics and diagnostics of rolling stock and have expertise in the energy related aspects of a rail transport system.
Transport Engineering Management. Any mode of transport, be it road, rail, air, water or pipeline, is related to customer service, regardless of whether it is the transportation of passengers or shipping products from one place to another.
As the transport sector has always been characterized by tough competition, the companies providing these services are constantly seeking new ways to improve, work more efficiently and at lower cost, ensuring that maximum benefit is derived from the opportunities offered by modern information technologies.
Management, customer business, pricing, negotiation, route network design and scheduling are among the most important areas in the sector of transport services, therefore there will always be a high demand for managers with the engineering mindset.
Graduates of this specialization will acquire the ability not only to analyze and use technical information, but also to research and optimize various transport engineering and management processes, build teamwork skills, organize and manage the work collective.
Transport machinery and equipment. The Lithuanian transport sector covers not only passenger cars and rail transport, but also high-capacity, energy intensive and expensive road construction and road maintenance, load lifting and transport, mining and construction machinery and equipment as well as traffic flows and technological pipelines.
Particular consideration is given to reducing the energy losses of the machinery in question, increasing productivity, forecasting of the residual resources and durability, as well as using and managing new information technologies.
The professionals attempting to resolve these problems require knowledge of the properties of new materials, understanding the physical processes, knowledge on modern research methods and tools as well as the ability to apply them. Highly qualified professionals in this field are in demand both in Lithuania and abroad.
Graduates of this specialization will be knowledgeable about the design of mobile machinery, dynamic processes and their research methods, design, operation and diagnostics of technological pipelines. They will also have expertise in the dynamic processes of hydraulic, pneumatic and mechanical transmissions as well as chassis systems of this machinery, its diagnostics and interaction within the components of the transport system as well as research methods of vehicle traffic flows in the urban road network and particularities of their management.
Such specialists will be able to analyze, research, model and optimize the physical processes taking place within the mobile machinery system, solve the problems of design and operation of mobile machinery and diagnostics of individual systems of the said machinery.
The specialization of transport machinery and equipment is offered in Lithuanian or English.
