立陶宛,一個開放而友好的國家,既對傳統(tǒng)秉持敬意,又對創(chuàng)新充滿熱忱。雖是歐盟經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展最快的國家之一,立陶宛的生活成本卻低于許多其他歐洲國家。
立陶宛提供超過300多個用英語教學(xué)的專業(yè)學(xué)位。目前,立陶宛的國際生來自世界150多個國家。在過去的8年里,立陶宛國際學(xué)生的數(shù)量從2000多人增長到2016年的5000多人。最新研究表明,94%國際學(xué)生依舊推薦立陶宛作為留學(xué)目的 國。
立陶宛的高等教育體系有兩類,即大學(xué)和學(xué)院教育。大學(xué)為學(xué)生提供學(xué)術(shù)教育和理論培訓(xùn),學(xué)院則傾向于培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的專業(yè)技能。高等教育總共授予三種學(xué)位,學(xué)士(大學(xué))或者專業(yè)學(xué)士(學(xué)院)、碩士以及博士,獲歐盟和中國承認(rèn)。
高等教育學(xué)費(fèi)是一大開支,立陶宛的學(xué)費(fèi)由于專業(yè)和學(xué)制的不同而不同,并隨著學(xué)位的提高而增加。一般來說,本科每年的學(xué)費(fèi)在1000~5000歐元之間,碩士每年2000~6500歐元,博士則每年7000~8500歐元。在立陶宛讀書的國際學(xué)生中,超過七成的學(xué)生認(rèn)為立陶宛教育的性價比還是挺高的:學(xué)費(fèi)合理,學(xué)術(shù)卓越以及提供大額獎學(xué)金。
立陶宛提供多種獎學(xué)金,包括國家獎學(xué)金、高等院校獎學(xué)金以及國際獎學(xué)金。所有專業(yè)的學(xué)生、講師和研究員都可以申請立陶宛國家獎學(xué)金。一般來說,國家獎學(xué)金數(shù)額相對可觀,囊括學(xué)費(fèi)和生活費(fèi)。
此外,立陶宛的高等院校為學(xué)生提供很多實(shí)習(xí)機(jī)會,獲取專業(yè)知識、培養(yǎng)就業(yè)能力。學(xué)校設(shè)有就業(yè)中心幫助學(xué)生進(jìn)行職業(yè)規(guī)劃和就業(yè)指導(dǎo)。立陶宛當(dāng)?shù)氐墓竞涂鐕髽I(yè)也熱衷于雇傭就業(yè)能力強(qiáng)的國際學(xué)生。根據(jù)立陶宛法律規(guī)定,本科生二年級就可以每周工作達(dá)20個小時。學(xué)生也可參加歐盟實(shí)習(xí)項(xiàng)目Erasmus+來獲取歐盟各國的工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)。
