You are cordially invited to take part in the 10th International Week which will be held on April 12–16, 2027 at the Lithuanian Sports University (LSU), Kaunas, Lithuania.
In 2027 the LSU International Week marks its 10th Anniversary, and we would like to invite you to celebrate this milestone event together with us.
From its very beginning the LSU International Week was designed to bring together scholars, teachers and practitioners from our partner institutions across Europe and beyond for networking and sharing their knowledge, expertise and experience.
The 10th edition of the International Week will be primarily focused on two major thematic areas:
- Promotion of health-enhancing physical activity
- Rehabilitation
In addition to these two major topics, the International Week is open to the academic staff who would be interested to teach in other thematic areas as:
| · Adapted physical activity · Health-enhancing physical activity · Exercise and sport nutrition · Occupational health · Physiotherapy · Physical education |
· Sports coaching · Sport and exercise physiology · Sport managament · Strength and conditioning · Tourism and leisure studies · Other disciplines related to sport science |
Since the 1st LSU International Week held in 2014, this annual event has become a part of the University’s “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 our partner institutions.
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 social activities, including:
• individual meetings with representatives of the academic departments,
• guided Kaunas city tour,
• tasting traditional Lithuanian cuisine,
• sports activities,
• and much more…
