history
In order to strengthen the Lithuanian political and cultural positions in the Klaipėda region, the government of Lithuania established two Lithuanian universities in Klaipėda from 1934 to 1935. In 1934 the Trade Institute was established and in 1935 the Pedagogical Institute of the Republic. There were no faculties in the commercial institute. Only in the third year of study were the students divided into three courses ( commerce , banking and foreign trade ). The institute did not have its own premises. The lectures took place in different offices all over the city. In 1939 the Institute of Commerce was relocated to Šiauliai . There is the University of Šiauliai here .
