Prof. P. Baltrėnas led a group of young scientists and encouraged them to lead even younger scientists. More than 20 doctoral theses were prepared and defended under the supervision of the professor. In this way, continuous scientific ideas are created, a scientific school is created, complex ideas are created to solve individual tasks.
Investigation groups. This principle of organization of scientific work is clearly visible when looking at the rich lists of publications of the professor and his students. The working principle of the research groups allows solving problems more quickly, obtaining better research results and implementing them in the resolution of applied engineering projects.
Doc. Dr. Raimondas Grubliauskas
Prof. skilled. Dr. Thanks to P. Baltrėnas, the department has a long and deep tradition in training physicians of the highest qualification in environmental engineering and landscaping. Since the establishment of the department, almost 50 doctors of science have been trained, most of whom – 20 – were trained by prof. skilled. Dr. P. Baltrėnas. Several unsuccessful attempts to regain a PhD in Environmental Engineering did not get out of the way, and perseverance and dedication only carried forward. These are distinctive traits that you can envy and strive to achieve. As he has repeatedly quoted the saying “Saints do not nail pots”, which made many smile, but the further away, the more one can agree that there are no unfinished works that cannot be carried out …
