Peculiarities of the study process
The aim of the Management and Business Administration study programme is to prepare highly-qualified specialists in commerce and business organisation who are able to find and use new ways to manage business processes.
For the first two years of studies, potential managers are taught according to the general business study programme; later on, they choose a narrower specialisation, i.e. Commerce (oriented towards the application of business innovation and competition improvement to trading networks and both standard and electronic environment) or Business Organisation (oriented towards business planning, decision making and implementation and control, implementation of specific actions in order to provide the business with equipment, workforce, and implement business management).
During the fourth year of studies, students carry out practice in an organisation or company; also, the students can participate in the Erasmus practice programme which takes place in foreign companies. The studies are brought closer to relevant needs faced in practical life; thus, they provide the students with an opportunity to study and work at the same time. There are permanent and extended forms if study.
Graduation
The study programme ends with the preparation of the final thesis. Those who have successfully graduated from the programme are awarded a bachelor degree in business and management.

Management and Business Administration graduates’ thoughts on the studies:
 |
ADAMONYTĖ Eglė
Management and Business Administration studies provided useful knowledge (in the fields of finance, marketing, pricing and economics) that will remain useful for my further career. I am happy to have studied in this programme because I can choose a career as a manager, economist, finance specialist or even informatics specialist. This profession encompasses a wide variety of subjects without focusing on only one aspect. |

LUKOŠEVIČIŪTĖ Aušra
Management and Business Administration studies taught me to plan my time, write research papers. I am happy with the subjects in the syllabus because they were really interesting and useful. I have no regrets having studied in this university and this study programme because it is very universal and provides a lot of promising job offers. |
 |
MIKOLĖNAITĖ Justina
The four years in this university gave me versatile benefits. Except for the acquisition of theory, it was my pleasure to work with the lecturers who related the subjects they taught with practical experience. Moreover, a lot of emphasis is put on work in groups, thanks to which we learnt to work in a team, organise the work, which is useful for an employee. Presentations for audiences provided self-confidence and taught to communicate with an audience. |
 |
PAŠKEVIČIŪTĖ Živilė
Management and Business Administration studies made me understand the difference between a group and a team, get to know the lecturers, gain experience and knowledge about behaviour in one or another situation. The lecturers who “wore” us down during lectures I call “pearls” because they enabled me to understand what hard work is. The studies developed my creativity – even the most “boring” topic can be presented in an interesting way. Variety of subjects made me understand what I am really interested in and what is beyond my scope of interest. Thus, I have set a goal and direction for myself which I will be pursuing in the future. |

ŠIMELIONYTĖ Algina
Management and Business Administration studies helped me to productively plan my time for work and leisure. Frequent work in groups taught me the essentials of teamwork. The best defense are relevant arguments. This saying describes the studies because only through the knowledge of legislation and business can you become a good manager and leader.

JUŠKEVIČIŪTĖ Ieva
Management and Business Administration studies were very useful for me. The syllabus is developed in a good way because it encompasses different fields, i.e. economics, finance, law, market research and so on. The subjects I studied enabled me to gain general knowledge about business and the peculiarities of its development. This is going to be useful in my future career. |

ZRELSKYTĖ Rūta
The studies widened my scope and motivated me to take interested in innovative business ideas and unconventional marketing solutions. I learnt to work in a team, plan my time and organise my activities. |

ŠČIAPONIS Karolis
This university helped me to develop not only my knowledge, but also my personality. I would not trade the time spent in the university for anything. I got everything I wanted and more. |
