A dynamic Erasmus+ learning experience in Münster: artificial intelligence in everyday office life
From February 22–28, Dr. Laima Skauronė, Head of the Administration Group at Vytautas Magnus University Agriculture Academy (VMU AA), and Dr. Monika Medikienė, International Coordinator at VMU AA, participated in an Erasmus+ training visit at the European Institute for Academic and Professional Development (EIAPD) in Münster, Germany. Both representatives actively engaged in the training course titled “Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Everyday Office Life,” led by dr. Jan Schmidt, an AI professional with extensive experience in academic training and professional development. During the training, participants acquired a comprehensive and practical understanding of how AI transforms modern workplace processes.
The training course was meticulously designed to introduce participants to both foundational AI concepts and advanced applications in office environments. The structured sessions combined theoretical discussions with interactive, practical exercises, ensuring a well-rounded learning experience.
One of the key takeaways was the emphasis on learning new AI-related vocabulary, which set the stage for understanding complex concepts such as machine learning, neural networks, generative models, and large language models (LLMs). By defining these terms early in the program, we were able to engage with the material more effectively throughout the course.
A significant portion of the training focused on Generative AI, particularly text-to-text and text-to-image models. We explored how large language models (LLMs) function by predicting the likelihood of word sequences, ultimately enabling coherent and contextually relevant text generation. Similarly, text-to-image models leverage probabilistic algorithms to create high-quality visuals based on user prompts.
We discussed the evolution of LLMs, from early, rigid models to modern reasoning-based AI systems, which incorporate logical assessment before generating responses. This capability is crucial for ensuring accuracy and reducing AI-generated “hallucinations.”

- AI-integrated Office Solutions: Microsoft Copilot and Canva AI, which seamlessly integrate generative AI into productivity software.
These tools are reshaping workflows by automating repetitive tasks, enhancing decision-making, and improving content creation across various industries.
Mastering AI Prompting Techniques
Another core aspect of the training was AI prompting, which is essential for optimizing AI-generated responses. We practiced different prompting techniques, including:
- Zero-shot, one-shot, and few-shot prompting – guiding AI with varying levels of example-based learning.
- Chain-of-thought prompting – encouraging step-by-step reasoning in AI responses.
- Instruction-based prompting – refining AI outputs through structured and precise instructions.
- Role-prompting – directing AI to adopt specific personas for tailored outputs.
- Meta-prompting – using AI to generate better AI prompts, enhancing efficiency and accuracy.
Understanding these techniques was invaluable in improving the accuracy, coherence, and usability of AI-generated content.
Challenges and Ethical Considerations
While AI provides remarkable benefits, the course also addressed its limitations and ethical challenges. Concerns such as bias in AI models, data privacy, and over-reliance on automation were discussed. Dr. Schmidt emphasized the importance of critically evaluating AI outputs to avoid misinformation and ethical pitfalls. This balanced approach reinforced the need for human oversight in AI applications.
Key Takeaways and Future Perspectives
The training experience was highly enriching and practical, equipping us with the knowledge and skills to integrate AI efficiently into office environments. As AI continues to evolve, professionals across various fields must adapt to emerging technologies to enhance productivity and decision-making processes.
One of the most valuable aspects of this Erasmus+ experience was the diverse perspectives of participants from various EU countries. Engaging in discussions, sharing insights, and collaborating on AI-related tasks fostered an interdisciplinary learning environment that extended beyond the classroom.
The “AI in Everyday Office Life” course was a transformative experience, shedding light on the numerous possibilities AI presents for office professionals. By understanding and applying AI strategically, organizations can streamline operations, enhance communication, and foster innovation.
Laima Skauronė and Monika Medikienė expressed their satisfaction with deepening their AI knowledge and their enthusiasm for applying it to future academic and professional projects. The Erasmus+ training visit to Münster reaffirmed that continuous learning is essential in the digital age.
Despite an intensive training schedule, participants also enjoyed discovering the charming city of Münster and its rich German cultural history. After training sessions, they explored the cozy old town, visited the city park by Lake Aa, St. Paul’s Cathedral, several impressive churches, the Bible Museum, and Münster University, located in a historic castle. The ongoing carnival celebrations, with vibrant masks and festivities, provided a unique and memorable atmosphere, allowing participants to experience authentic German traditions and spirit firsthand. This opportunity offered a deeper understanding of local history and integration into Münster’s cultural traditions.

High Scientific Competence Centers Launched at Vytautas Magnus University for Bioeconomy Development and GDP Growth
Creating economic prosperity without compromising future generations is only achievable by developing bioeconomy based on sustainability and circular economy principles. In Lithuania, Vytautas Magnus University Agriculture Academy (VMU AA), which holds extensive experience and scientific potential in bioeconomy research, has taken the leadership role in promoting efficient use of biological resources. A significant new step in this direction is the establishment of two centers of high scientific competence: the Bioeconomy Excellence Centre (BioTec) and the Smart Forestry Excellence Centre. These centers aim to foster innovation, develop science-business partnerships, educate young scientists, enhance the university’s visibility, and strive for leadership in the Baltic region and across Europe.
Creating Added Value for Both the State and the Academy
The quality of research at VMU and other Lithuanian public universities is being enhanced through the “University Excellence Initiative” launched by the Ministry of Education, Science, and Sport in 2023. In 2023, €4 million was allocated, last year more than €13 million, and by 2027, a total of €57.5 million is planned.
“Universities themselves, knowing best their strengths and priorities, could decide where to invest these state-provided funds. VMU has decided to divide these funds to strengthen social sciences and bioeconomy,” said VMU AA Chancellor Prof. Dr. Astrida Miceikienė.
According to Prof. Miceikienė, identifying priority areas was straightforward for an institution celebrating 100 years of scientific tradition. Agronomy and environmental engineering emerged as critical for both international leadership and domestic bioeconomy stimulation, prompting the establishment of the Bioeconomy Research Centre of Excellence at VMU Agriculture Academy.
“VMU AA researchers have also achieved remarkable success in forestry research, collaborating with leading European science centers. Hence, we are establishing another center—the Smart Forestry Excellence Centre—funded not by the ministry’s initiative but by winning international competition through the HORIZON-WIDERA-2022 program, dedicated to creating and developing the ‘FOREST 4.0’ excellence center,” Prof. Miceikienė explained.
According to Prof. Miceikienė, these centers attract top scientists capable of innovative research. Modern infrastructure, equipment acquisition, and research funding are essential to these goals.
Chancellor of VMU Agriculture Academy, Prof. Dr. Astrida Miceikienė
“The centers aim to attract young researchers focused long-term on bioeconomy and forestry, alongside international experts, since Lithuania, being a small country, cannot maintain top experts in all fields,” she stated. These excellence centers generate value for both the state and VMU AA by enhancing researchers’ capabilities, promoting innovation, increasing academic publications, and training more graduate students. Innovations created by researchers can be commercialized, ultimately boosting GDP through increased tax revenues.
Positive Social and Economic Impact
According to Prof. Dr. Zita Kriaučiūnienė, head of VMU AA’s Bioeconomy Research Centre of Excellence, the center has already yielded results by acquiring advanced scientific equipment and software. Tools like “SimaPro” software enable comprehensive lifecycle assessments for agricultural systems, aiding sustainable agricultural decisions.

Smart Forestry Excellence Centre for Innovative Bioeconomy Under the HORIZON-WIDERA-2022 program, VMU AA, alongside European partners, is developing the “FOREST 4.0” project—a competence center applying AI and IoT in forestry. The project aims to enhance Lithuania’s bioeconomy leadership in Europe by digitalizing forestry operations and supporting informed decision-making.
Prof. Dr. Gintautas Mozgeris from the Department of Forestry and Ecology emphasizes that tools developed will provide comprehensive data on forest ecosystems, enable risk forecasting, and promote balanced resource management. The project also plans to implement greenhouse gas emission monitoring technologies to support carbon farming practices, ensuring effective management and carbon credit verification.
Head of the Department of Forest Sciences, Faculty of Forestry and Ecology, VMU Agriculture Academy, Prof. Dr. Gintautas Mozgeris
“It is particularly important to avoid practices where greenhouse gas (GHG) emitters purchase carbon credits that do not actually result in emission reductions or increased absorption. Through the ‘Forest 4.0’ project, it is planned to establish a GHG emission monitoring tower capable of capturing real-time data on greenhouse gas emissions within a radius of over 100 kilometers. Additionally, mobile equipment will be utilized to monitor long-term GHG balances, enabling analysis of how GHG balances change in different conditions such as clear-cut areas, restored forest wetlands, and more. Expanded scientific research will validate effective carbon farming methods, simultaneously reducing the risks and societal impacts associated with the increasingly prevalent practice of ‘greenwashing,’” summarized Prof. Dr. G. Mozgeris.
Ultimately, VMU AA’s advanced research initiatives in bioeconomy and forestry promise significant social and economic benefits, including increased national GDP and sustainable growth.

Visit to the Medininkai Border: valuable insights into customs operations for customs and logistics students
On March 6, 2025, students of MBA Customs Process Management, Master of Business Logistics and Bachelor of Logistics and Commerce visited the border queuing terminal at the Medininkai border operated by UAB “Durga”. During the visit, the social partners gave an overview of the development of Lithuanian customs from the country’s independence until today. The students were accompanied by their teachers assoc. prof. dr. Erika Besusparienė, assoc. prof. dr. Milita Vienažindienė and lect. Kristina Gesevičienė.
The representatives of UAB “Durga” presented the history of the company since its establishment in 1994 and discussed the development of customs procedures after Lithuania regained its independence. The social partners gave an insight into the first customs posts, their activities and cargo movement control. Students learned how customs procedures have changed over three decades, influenced by technological advances and shifts in international trade.
The visit also covered the current organization of the movement of cargo vehicles through the Medininkai border post. A key role in this process is played by the truck queuing terminal at Medininkai, which helps regulate the flow of traffic, ensures smooth and efficient cargo inspections and reduces congestion at the border.
Jonas Aleksonis, a representative of UAB “Durga” and a graduate of the MBA Customs Process Management, presented how the company incorporates sustainability principles. To improve working conditions for truck drivers, the terminal offers showers, gym equipment, a cafeteria and a shop. In addition, local rural communities provide catering services, allowing drivers to enjoy quality meals while supporting the local economy.
Environmental sustainability is another priority for the company. To minimize environmental impact, oil pollutants are collected in a special oil product trap. Up to 10 tons of pollutants are removed from the terminal each year, contributing to a cleaner environment and sustainable business practices.
The visit to the Medininkai border terminal provided the students with both theoretical knowledge and first-hand experience of how the customs and logistics sectors operate. Such cooperation with social partners is crucial for the younger generation, helping them to acquire practical skills and understand the complexities of logistics and customs operations in a real working environment.
On their way back, the students also visited the Medininkai Memorial to honor the Lithuanian border guards who tragically lost their lives, reflecting on this significant event in the country’s history. Their journey then continued to the historic Medininkai Castle, one of Lithuania’s oldest and best-preserved defensive castles dating back to the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. The students were fascinated to learn about the castle’s role during the reign of Vytautas Magnus and its importance in national defense. This visit not only enriched their historical knowledge, but also provided a deeper appreciation of Lithuania’s cultural heritage.
