13th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2026)
You are kindly invited to the 13th International Conference “Environmental Engineering”. Conference will be held in Vilnius, Lithuania, 23–24 April 2026
About the Conference
The Conference provides an opportunity for scientists, engineers, managers, and professionals from around the world to sum up achievements and highlight problems. It is an excellent opportunity to meet colleagues, exchange knowledge and experience, and extend your list of contacts.
History
Once every three years, the faculty organizes the International Conference “Environmental Engineering”. The first conference was held in 1994. At the 10th International Conference in Vilnius (27–28 April 2017), researchers from 16 countries presented their reports in six sections. 275 significant and original articles were selected and published in the Conference Material, included in international databases.

Main Goals
- Facilitate direct discussions and versatile cooperation between researchers, engineers, industry representatives, and municipalities.
- Bring together potential partners for successful, long-term cooperation on environmental engineering.
- Discuss further directions of applied research development and implement state-of-the-art research in practice.
Topics
The conference is devoted to the analysis of relevant environmental and water engineering issues, key road and railway research, state-of-the-art geodesy and cadastre technologies, and the optimization of energy supply and use systems.
