Studies

The study process at the Faculty of European Studies is organised in the form of modules-based learning. The module system is widely used in Europe and offers the students the opportunity to acquire a more profound understanding of essential disciplines: 

  • maximum of three subjects taught at a time;
  • knowledge tests are taken at the end of each study course and not in the form of examination sessions; 
  • small number of students in each group ensures individual approach to each student. 

Languages of instruction

Latvian and English. The students have the opportunity to deepen their knowledge of German, French and Spanish.

Internships

Considering the academic performance and the interests of students, Rīga Stradiņš University (RSU) renders assistance in ensuring placement possibilities at local and international companies, Ministries of the Republic of Latvia, foreign embassies and EU institutions. 

Mobility programmes

2nd year students may enrich their knowledge and gain intercultural experience at other European universities that are participating in the international mobility programme Erasmus+.
