Production Engineering
There will be no admission to this study programme in 2024!
If you want not only to use the achievements of the industrial revolution, but also to become a part of it, choose the Production Engineering Study Programme implemented at Šiaulių valstybinė kolegija.
Graduates of the Programme have the best career possibilities – after all, they are characterized by engineering versatility, know how to use modern software design packages, are able to install and maintain CNC machines, mechatronic systems, laser devices, and perform digital production supervision engineering and consulting work.
If you have an engineering mindset, consider the prospects and become a production engineer!
This programme has already been evaluated by business – in June 2021 it was awarded the quality label “Investors‘ Spotlight” by the foreign investment development agency “Invest in Lithuania”.
In addition, the Programme students have the possibility to continue their studies at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Design of Kaunas University of Technology.
Studies at Šiaulių valstybinė kolegija can be combined with work – both in full-time and part-time mode. Individual solutions are acommodated on a case-by-case basis.
Why in Šiaulių valstybinė kolegija?
Students in modern laboratories design and manufacture logistics robots, robotic logistics terminals, strengthen practical skills by installing, combining and operating pneumatic devices and hydraulic system elements.
