The Ecology and Climate Change study program provided me with new and deepened my existing comprehensive knowledge in this field. The experience and knowledge I gained gave me an advantage and enabled me to find answers more quickly, which are necessary for everyday environmental work.

Summing up the 27th UN Climate Change Conference, it's worth remembering the slogan chanted by the demonstrators next to the conference: "What do we want? Climate justice!" Achieving this requires all of our efforts, cooperation, and contribution with tangible actions towards the implementation of climate justice.
Doc. dr. Daiva Šileikienė, programme lecturer
While studying, I have the opportunity to update my knowledge of environmental protection, acquire new theoretical knowledge about processes occurring in nature, apply them in practice, and in my career. I have a better understanding of aspects of climate change and principles of circular economy.
