More information. 

overview

Degree
Master of Engineering Sciences
Length, structure
2 years (4 semesters) graduation is finalized with the defense of Final project
Detailed programme curricula 
Tuition fee for non EU citizens
5950 EUR per year
For EU/local citizens State funding is available, more information.
Start 1st of September 
Entry Qualification To this programme applicants are accepted from the fields of: Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Transport Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Physics.

Why this programme?

This master's degree program encompasses traits such as curiosity, a desire to innovate, the freedom to materialize personal ideas, and the opportunity to cultivate a startup. It resembles a two-year-long hackathon, with the development of science-based prototypes as the primary source of future skills.
In the realm of aeronautics innovation, we view it as an interdisciplinary endeavor. Thus, expertise in electronics, mechanics, IT, transportation, aeronautics, and other engineering branches will empower your team, providing a competitive edge.
Prospective students pursuing aeronautical engineering at the master's level should possess foundational knowledge in aerodynamics, aircraft structures, mechanics, and aircraft engine types. Online courses, curated by esteemed technical universities worldwide, including MIT and TU Delft, are available prior to the commencement of the study.
Participants in this program will collaboratively develop prototypes in teams. Individuals seeking like-minded partners or groups with unified ideas are encouraged to apply. Teams will receive guidance from experienced business professionals, and qualified mentors will shed light on startup development through the "Futurepreneurs" program.
The overarching goal of this study program is to produce highly qualified specialists equipped with interdisciplinary and cutting-edge knowledge in aeronautical engineering. These specialists should be adept at constructing satellite systems and their components, addressing engineering challenges in industrial UAV development, conducting interdisciplinary research, and applying acquired results to prototype and innovation development.
To actualize projects, experts and experienced scientists will offer support in fields such as drones (UAVs), nano-satellites, 3D printing in aeronautics, and military innovation in aeronautics.
Drones (UAVs) represent a rapidly evolving technology with applications in agriculture, scouting, inspection, and scanning. Working on a prototype involves investigating aircraft automation, flight characteristics, beneficial cargo, aircraft reliability, power-plant systems, and other areas where UAVs could be employed.
Nano-satellites constitute a growing sector in commercial and military applications. As a participant, you will explore mechanical, electronic, and IT systems, focusing on system design, manufacturing, and integration tasks.
3D printing in aeronautics is a burgeoning technology with significant implications for aviation. Participants will delve into the application of 3D printing technology in aircraft and aircraft structure manufacturing, evaluating opportunities and mechanical properties of designed pieces.
Military innovation in aeronautics is another focal point, leveraging advancements from the defense industry. Participants will address public safety and defense challenges, propose innovations based on aeronautical engineering research, and collaboratively test prototypes with army soldiers and officers.

Preparation for Studies

Those interested in aviation and wishing to study for a Master's degree in Aerospace Engineering must be familiar with the basics of aerodynamics, aircraft construction mechanics and aircraft engine design. We offer an online course of lectures from some of the best technical universities in the world (MIT, TU Delft) on these special program subjects. You will receive the most up-to-date information that will be relevant to your master's degree. We suggest completing the modules before starting the master's degree.
Aerodynamics: TU Delft courses (free (official certificate 50 USD), 7 weeks); MIT courses (free (official certificate 100 USD), 15 weeks); 
Aircraft Mechanics: TU Delft Course (Free (Official Certificate $ 50), 8 Weeks) 

What abilities will you develop?

Aerospace Engineering Master’s degree study program is aimed at developing the following skills: 
  • Understanding of principles of aeronautical engineering; 
  • Planning and conducting analytical, modelling and experimental research, critical evaluation of the obtained data and result application in manufacturing of the prototype;  
  • The ability to apply new research methods for aeronautical engineering problem investigation; 
  • The ability to resolve Non-standard, vaguely described problems, identify and define standard and non-standard aeronautical engineering problems and therefore apply novel methods for specific problem solution and decision implementation;  
  • Innovative facilitation of novel and original ideas in the field of aeronautical engineering as well as methods applied to provide engineering solutions in multi-faced, technically undefined and not precisely described problems;
  • Unified understanding the effects of aeronautical engineering on general public and the environment; 
  • Project management, team work, commercialisation and business aspects of the start-ups;  
  • Understanding how the technological solutions are linked to economic consequences.  

Exchange Period Abroad?

The aviation industry is unquestionably international, and international experience – is important for every specialist aspiring to work in it. VILNIUS TECH Aviation Institute's students and lecturers can participate in various international cooperation and exchange programmes, providing the possibility for VILNIUS TECH Aviation Institute's students to gain international experience in foreign higher education institutions,  preparing aviation specialists. Acquaintance with the aviation sector abroad,  experience of working in a multicultural team  and active use of professional English – are only a few advantages of mobility for studies or practice.

CUSTOMIZE YOUR EXPERIENCE

You will have plenty of opportunities to apply and diversity your skills through graduate projects, internships, career programmes, clubs and societies.
  • Studies and internship abroad
  • Career Services
  • Linkmenų factory
  • Sport and Art Centre
  • Aviation Specialists' Qualification Improvement Centre

What about career opportunities after Master's degree studies?

  • Establish the start-up on the basis of the prototype; 
  • Obtain employment in the fields of aeronautical and aerospace industries; 
  • Obtain employment in defence and public security institutions, energy, agriculture, transportation, logistics and other institutions where you will foster drone-based innovation; 
  • Design satellites, aircraft and their systems; 
  • Seek academic career; 
  • Continue your studies on a third - doctoral study cycle. 

Student Projects at AGAI

Students at AGAI are encouraged to get involved in various practical projects. Currently, they are participating in workshops with lecturers  to revive some of our old aircraft for new life to be used for study and training purposes as models and educational material.

See our progress here. 

Another great example of a multidisciplinary project completed in joint efforts with lecturers and students at AGAI is a smart UAV for aerial mapping and video monitoring. It joins knowledge and skills of aerodynamics, electronics and aircraft operations to make sure that the UAV does exactly what it is designed to do. 

See our results here.

To mark a 100 year anniversary, the Antanas Gustaitis Aviation Institute of Vilnius Gediminas Technical University (VILNIUS TECH AGAI) flew their unmanned aircraft over Lithuania and covered a distance of 397 km.
The purpose of the flight over Lithuania was to test the system of the new VILNIUS TECH AGAI unmanned aircraft, to test the communication and communication systems under real conditions and to gain experience in the operation of unmanned aircraft for long distances.
