Description :
Riga is the largest of the three Baltic capitals and lies on the coast of Latvia. Its location and size mean it is well connected to neighboring areas and has a lively cultural scene. With the natural beauty of the coast and woodlands accessible from the city and a low cost of living, Riga is a unique and attractive place to study on exchange. The University of Latvia has a large student body including many international students. It offers a wide range of courses in English at both the graduate and undergraduate levels, and students can also study Latvian or Russian as a second language. UNO sends and receives students from the University of Latvia through the MAUI-Utrecht Consortium, which was established in 1998 with UNO as a member institution.
