A land of wood and water, proud, independent Lithuania (Lietuva) is fast being recognised as one of Europe’s gems. Southernmost of the Baltic states, it’s a pocket-sized republic that’s a nature-lover’s delight, yet lacks nothing in urban excitement. Lithuania’s foremost attraction is its stunning Baltic coastline, especially the unique silverr of white sand known as Curonian Spit. Lonely coastal wetlands lure migrating birds by the tens of thousands while inland, lush forests watch over burnished lakes. The capital, Vilnius, is a beguiling artists’ enclave, its timeworn courtyards, cobbled streets and baroque churches animated by the vibrant, optimistic culture of today.
Moreover, despite of Lithuania’s small size, it is known for its sport success, especially in basketball. If Latvia is “the country that sings”, Lithuania is definitely “the country that plays basketball”.

Higher education in Lithuania is available at universities or colleges. The higher education institutions follow the guidelines of the Bologna declaration. The Bologna process was initiated in 1999 when the Ministers of Education from 29 European countries signed the Bologna declaration in the Italian city of Bologna.
The purpose of the process is to create educational standards for academic degrees and quality assurance, to make it easier for students to move from one European country to another and to improve quality of European higher education. The system also incorporates aspects of the American higher education system and thus simplifies comparison. The Bologna system uses the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) to measure the amount of higher education credits.
