Each new academic year arrives with new challenges and opportunities. It is a time for all of us to grow, learn and evolve together, both academically and in our personal lives. The University of Latvia (UL) is a place where knowledge, ideas and inspiration meet, creating our shared future. UL Rector Gundars Bērziņš greets every lecturer, researcher, student and cooperation partner at the beginning of the new academic year!

This year, celebrating the University’s 105th anniversary, the rector calls upon the University community to fortify the fundamental values of UL – 

• University as a value, 

• Human as a value, 

• Excellence as a value, 

• Freedom as a value. 

We wish you courage and perseverance on the path of knowledge to everyone! Use this time to the fullest – to learn, to share thoughts and, together, to create values that will contribute to the development of our University and society as a whole. 

May this study year be filled with new achievements, creative work and valuable discoveries for all of us!
