The Quantitative Economics (QE) programme was created by the Bank of Lithuania researchers trained at the world’s best universities to transform economics education in the country.

The course structure ensures an in-depth coverage of critical fields, namely data science and computing, finance, and economics, which are highly valuable in the job market. Over time other programmes have adopted similar structure, yet QE remains the most challenging, selective, and supportive programme.

Each student has to pass a higher minimum grade bar and, upon admission, is matched with a senior mentor who provides tailored academic, career, and social advice. The QE programme is taught by research-active lecturers and professors with PhDs from leading universities worldwide, helping to keep the contents of the course up to date. In addition, it is based on the CORE project, OpenStax and other modern teaching methods in economics and 鍖�nance.

Last but not least, the scholarships for the best students are provided by social partners, such as the Bank of Lithuania and Nasdaq, to mention a few.
