Santrauka
The operation of industrial, construction and agricultural enterprises as well as work efficiency and public opinion largely depend on reliability and effective performance of transport and telecommunication. The Lithuanian universities train qualified specialists in transport engineering and telecommunication engineering, who are highly appraised in the European Union. The present paper briefly describes a system of joint admission to Lithuanian higher schools which has been already used for several years in this country. The problems of selecting applicants to the Lithuanian universities and the level of knowledge of the applicants admitted to study the programmes in transport engineering and telecommunication engineering will also be discussed in the present paper.
