70 postgraduate students to get Lithuanian state support

According to the press release, the support is granted to bring in more international students and attract gifted young people from abroad to study in Lithuania.

“We live in a global world, therefore, should do everything to promote brain circulation. Attracting postgraduate students from abroad makes studies more international. Lithuania’s universities and colleges improve their visibility on the global arena of studies, which is extremely important to encourage more talented foreign students to choose Lithuania to study,” Education and Science Minister Jurgita Petrauskienė said in a press release.

From the 70 study aid packages, 40 will this year go to postgraduate students from Ukraine. Other beneficiaries include students from Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, China, Japan and Moldova.
