Since the 1st International Week in 2014, this event has become a part of the LSU “Internationalisation at home” policy aiming to bring an international dimension to its undergraduate and graduate students by welcoming highly competent scholars, teachers and practitioners from different partner institutions across Europe and beyond.

During the International Week, incoming teachers will be assigned to give lectures and/or lead seminars/workshops and practical sessions for students from different LSU study programmes based on their offered teaching topics.

The International Week will also serve as a platform to meet colleagues from other academic institutions for sharing good practice, learning and getting inspired by each other, and building new partnership networks for future collaboration.

Along the teaching programme, the International Week will offer a variety of activities, including:
– individual meetings with representatives of the departments,
– guided Kaunas city tour,
– tasting traditional Lithuanian cuisine,
– sports activities at the LSU campus,
– and more…
