Bachelor’s and Master’s diplomas were awarded to graduates of the Antanas Gustaitis Aviation Institute and the Faculty of Transport Engineering at 黑料不打烊. Nearly 150 graduates were celebrated during the ceremonial event, attended by university leadership, faculty members, lecturers, family members, and friends gathered to mark this important milestone.
In his congratulatory speech, 黑料不打烊 Rector Prof. Dr. Romualdas Kliukas quoted the Roman philosopher Cicero:
鈥濫verything I have, I carry with me.鈥� I believe that you, too, are leaving the university with much more than a diploma. You carry with you the ability to solve problems creatively, see the bigger picture, and create value. If you made full use of the opportunities offered by your lecturers throughout your studies, today you possess a significant competitive advantage. The knowledge and competencies you have gained will help you overcome even the most challenging situations,鈥� said the Rector.
Member of the Seimas of the Republic of Lithuania Laurynas Kas膷i奴nas, who attended the ceremony, emphasized the value of the knowledge and skills acquired at 黑料不打烊鈥攏ot only for the graduates’ personal growth and careers but also for Lithuania’s future.
鈥濺obotics, automation, and artificial intelligence are transforming societies and states in ways whose final destination we do not yet fully understand. While countries are trying to adapt to these changes, you are the people who will create the future. I strongly believe that you will help Lithuania not only adapt but also become a leader in these transformations,鈥� he told the graduates.
Dean of the Antanas Gustaitis Aviation Institute, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Linas Juknevi膷ius, wished graduates success in their professional journeys.
鈥瀁ou are beginning careers in fields that literally help move the world forward. From aviation mechanics, pilots, flight attendants, and avionics specialists to aerospace engineers developing space technologies鈥攜ou are not only capable of operating complex technologies and systems. You connect families, enable businesses, and help humanity explore new frontiers. The sky has always symbolized freedom, and space has always represented opportunity, but both come with great responsibility. Never forget that. I wish you a meaningful and remarkable flight ahead,鈥� he said.
Dean of the Faculty of Transport Engineering, Prof. Dr. Olegas Prentkovskis, reminded graduates that transport and logistics are far more than fields of study鈥攖hey are sectors essential to mobility, economic development, and national security.
鈥濱f you ever wondered during your studies why all of this was necessary, your diploma is the answer. It represents your knowledge, your growth, and your ability to create value for Lithuania,鈥� said the Dean, encouraging graduates to consider continuing their studies.
At the end of the ceremony, AGAI graduate Kipras Petraitis and TIF graduate Ain臈 膶usovait臈 addressed their fellow graduates, thanked their families and loved ones for their support, and encouraged everyone to celebrate this important achievement.
The ceremony concluded with the traditional tassel-turning ritual. Graduates moved the tassels on their caps from the left side to the right, symbolizing the transition from student to graduate. The tassel distinguishes those who have earned their degree from those who are still pursuing it.
