The content of the course is acquired in the 4th year of the residency, in the second semester. The aim of the course is to ensure detailed theoretical knowledge and practical skills on the chosen field of pediatrics in compliant with the pediatrician specialty regulations, in order to prepare a resident for certification in the pediatrician specialty in accordance with the laws and regulations of the Republic of Latvia. Tasks of the course: –to acquire indepth knowledge on the pediatric diseases of the chosen field; –to provide indepth focus on recent advances in diagnostics, treatment and prevention of disease. Students (residents) acquire theoretical knowledge and practical skills on chosen field of pediatrics in the intra-hospital and outpatient clinical setting, on duties, and by participating in seminars. The course is taught in Latvian.

The course is implemented in accordance with the Regulations for the Practice in History and Archaeology. The aim of the course is to improve and enrich students' knowledge and skills in archaeology, providing the opportunity to learn the tasks and methods of archaeological fieldwork in practice. The practice is carried out in the framework of an archaeological expedition (excavation or survey) led by a professional archaeologist in Latvia. Course objectives: 1) to develop an in-depth understanding of the process of archaeological research, stages of work, tasks and methods; 2) to develop an in-depth understanding of the importance of the basic elements of archaeological fieldwork in the interpretation of archaeological material; 3) develop professional skills in field archaeology; 4) develop skills for the practical use of the archeological sources in research. The course is taught in Latvian.

The wide availability of advanced microcomputers creates new opportunities for the development of autonomous experimental systems with application in the various fields of science. The aim of the course is to develop skills in the creation and use of such autonomous systems for students of the Bachelor of Physics and other programs. The tasks are to learn the basic principles of the operation of micro-computers, their interaction with various kinds of sensors and peripheral equipment, and finally to design autonomous experimental systems. Since the course audience must be able to program microcomputers, the basic elements of C/C++ programming language are included in this course. The classes take place in classrooms with specially equipped computers using Arduino microcomputers and peripheral equipment kits. The study course is provided in Latvian.

The aim of the course is to provide basic knowledge about the place and importance of the logistics and transport industry in the economy, about the basic principles of using different transport systems. During the study process, students must acquire knowledge and skills that would allow to assess the planning of goods and passenger flows and the use of transport in the global transport system and in Latvia. The tasks of the course are to acquire knowledge about the specialization and geographical peculiarities of different modes of transport; to get acquainted with special literature on logistics transport geography; to analyse and plan the main flows of transport units, cargo and passengers; to master the basics of inventory management and document management within logistics systems. The language of instruction is Latvian
