Lithuania University joins hands with Kerala Agricultural University

Thrissur: Kerala Agricultural University ( KAU ) and Aleksandras Stulginskis University (ASU) of Lithuania will join hands to promote academic cooperation. The decision to have students and faculty exchange programmes between the universities was taken at a meeting between KAU Vice-Chancellor Dr.R. Chandrababu and a ASU delegation headed by Prof.Raimundas Rukuisa and Prof.Rolandas Domeika held at the KAU Headquarters the other day.

Vice-Chancellor Dr.R.Chandrababu told the delegation that he wanted KAU students to get the advantages of global education and so he was eager to associate with reputed foreign universities.

“Aleksandras Stulginskis University being a state owned university is all the more easy to associate with. Students from Lithuania can apply for KAU courses as well. We have expertise in several subject areas in which Lithuanian students can pursue studies. We will work out a memorandum of understanding for the exchange programmes and dual degree programmes,” he said. He explained that agricultural students sponsored by KAU could get the tuition fee waived.
