The primary mission of VMU is to uphold humanist culture, avoiding limitations of narrow, highly specialized studies, and remain the hotbed for intellectual sophistication and civil consciousness.
VMU is a community-oriented institution of science and studies which provides liberal conditions of education, develops partnerships, actively participates in the city life and contributes to the development of culture and science worldwide.
Re-established in 1989, Vytautas Magnus University has shown that it always aims to serve the nation and be open to the world. Thus, following these principles of freedom, independence and openness, the university is a place where students become independent creative thinkers.
We contribute to the global development of science and culture by:
1. participating in the creation of the project for the future Europe
2. developing and cultivating the idiosyncrasy of Lithuanian culture
3. enshrining the national identity and maintaining intercultural dialogue
4. acquiring, building and spreading scientific knowledge
Facilitate the exchange of ideas and people in the research area of the Middle East.
