Baltic University Programme (BUP) is an international academic network established in 1991, whose participants include universities in the countries of the Baltic Sea Region.

It is now one of the largest university chains in the world with around 90 member institutions. The aim of BUP is to support universities in spreading knowledge about broadly understood sustainable economic, ecological and social development in the Baltic Sea Region. The programme is based on cooperation between academic centres, but also other social institutions, e.g. local authorities and sustainable development organisations in the said region. BUP is active in education, research, information and projects.

Baltic University Programme is an interdisciplinary programme bringing together all types of universities - humanities and technical, higher educational and economic schools, agricultural and medical universities. It is coordinated at the international level by the BUP Secretariat at Uppsala University Sweden.

In Poland, the national Baltic University Centre is located at the Lodz University of Technology. 

BUP publishes annual reports on its activities, which are made available on the Organization's website.

One of BUP's annual events is a training course for PhD students. In 2021/22 academic year, it was hosted by TUL. The aim of this event is to provide PhD students with the opportunity to discuss scientific issues with a particular focus on sustainable development in an interdisciplinary, international, multicultural, and regional context. The training enables participants to learn about the scientific work of other researchers and to look at their own work through the eyes of other event participants, both their colleagues and invited experts. The training for PhD students held at TUL resulted in a Book of Abstracts containing 14 presentations from the event.
