Professional Bachelor of Marine Engineering 


Become a marine energy creator and help shape the world’s sustainable future with offshore wind turbine engineering! 

By 2030, global offshore wind capacity is expected to reach 234 GW, and by 2050 – an impressive 1.1 TW. In Lithuania, the first 700 MW offshore wind farm in the Baltic Sea will start operating in 2028, producing up to 6 terawatt-hours of green electricity per year – half of Lithuania’s current electricity needs. A second farm of the same capacity will follow in 2030. Together, these projects will attract over EUR 2 billion in investment and create about 2,600 new jobs, ranging from construction to long-term maintenance. 

This interdisciplinary study programme prepares highly qualified marine engineering specialists who are in high demand in the international renewable energy job market. Students develop specialized expertise and acquire strong theoretical knowledge together with practical skills in offshore wind farm operation and turbine maintenance, or in unmanned watercraft operation. They gain the ability to apply sustainable engineering solutions that support the development of renewable energy at sea, strengthen national energy security, and contribute to environmental objectives.

Admission Requirements

  • Secondary School Graduation Certificate with good results (minimum 60% CGPA)
  • Entrance score (KB) consists of grades in three subjects: mathematics (M), physics/another science subject/social science subject (F) and English language (A). The entrant's grades are normalized to the maximum possible grade. The normalized grades of individual subjects are multiplied by the weighting factor and added up (formula below). 
  • Applications must be accompanied by legalized English translations of all transcripts. Unofficial copies are not accepted. Please check country specific requirements for detailed information. 
  • English language proficiency.
  • Due to significant differences in applicants' achievements in Mathematics, applicants who have graduated from secondary or vocational schools in Pakistan, Bangladesh, or Nepal are required to take the Mathematics entrance exam organized by OMPT. The exam grade will be included in the Entrance score in place of the mathematics grade. The exam must be passed with a result of no less than 60% for admission to university-level Bachelor's degree study programmes and 50% for admission to professional Bachelor's degree study programmes.
