Supervision

Currently I am supervising one Master degree student, and one internship (supported by Research Council of Lithuania).

Previously I have supervised:

• 3 Bachelor degree students (2017 (×2), 2022).
• 2 internships (2013, 2016).

Lectures, exam and defense committees

• 2023 - 2024. "Agent-based modeling" (for first year Master degree students Vilnius University Faculty of Physics). Two lecture tutorial as a part of "Quantum Statistical Physics" course. Tutorial focus: introduction to agent-based modeling and physics of social systems. Slides used in 2024.
• 2019 - 2022. "Numerical Methods I" (for first year Bachelor degree students at Vilnius University Faculty of Physics). Course focus: introduction to programming and common numerical methods using Matlab. Slides used in 2022.
• 2018, 2019, 2022. Exam committee member of "Stochastic Processes" (for PhD students at Vilnius University Faculty of Physics).
• 2011 Spring. "Theoretical Mechanics" (for second year Bachelor degree students at Vilnius University Faculty of Physics). Seminars for one of the groups taking the course. Course focus: Lagrangian mechanics, Hamiltonian mechanics.

I have served as a defense panel member for one PhD thesis (2022). Also, once I have served as a defense panel member for Bachelor degree theses (2023).

I have reviewed two Bachelor degree theses (2020, 2023).
