Research
One of the exceptional VMU features in the area of research and art activity development is the formation of research clusters. Research clusters are active groups of researchers, representing various areas of science, who carry out common research or integrate studies and research, bringing together the scholarly potential of one or several units. The formation of clusters was launched in 2008, as a response to the Lithuanian and European research development programmes to enhance interdisciplinary scientific research. Currently 7 research clusters are active at Faculty of Natural Sciences.
