The aim of the study subject is to privide the student with a cerain amaunt of knowledge on historical being of Latvia and its reflection in various gendres of writing. Most important questions under discussion there are: 1) creativity, writing and totalitarian regime, text and censorship, 2) the formation of two different ideologies and literary traditions: soviet and exile Latvian literatures, 3) national tradition and influences of the modern trends of world literature, 4) analyses and interpretation of most important texts written by outstanding Latvian writers living in Soviet Latvia during hegemony of Socialist realism( A. Upīts, V.Lācis, J.Sudrabkalns, A.Čaks, M.Ķempe etc.) and after the "thaw" (A.Bels, M.Zariņš, R.Ezera, I.Ziedonis, O.Vācietis); 5) literature in transition, postmodern and/or postsoviet body of Latvian literature. The course introduces to phenomenon of exil and its influence to the process of Latvian literature.

The Course objective is to prepare the future teachers of the Latvian language and literature for theoretical and practical work at school as well as to develop students’ critical, creative and pedagogical-artistic thinking and the relevant skills. Course tasks: Provide knowledge on the subject specifics of the Latvian language and literature at various ages, and on principles for designing a contemporary Latvian language and literature lesson plan. To achieve the aim and learning outcomes of the study course, innovative study methods and forms will be used, for example, study tours, field trips, outdoor classes, classes in small groups in different educational institutions, and pedagogical supervision; besides, the study course will be organised in a multifaceted collaboration with experts from various fields, who will participate in idea laboratories/workshops, field trips and study tours.

This obligatory course is aimed at giving the student a broad understanding of the theoretical framework governing particle-material interactions, as well as of the materials, technologies and methods used in modern particle detectors. The course will begin with a brief historical overview of particle detectors and a summary of the basic properties of various detectable, long-lived particles. The course will then cover the theoretical aspects of particle-material interaction, introducing concepts such as scattering, radiation and nuclear interaction length, energy loss, Bragg curve and bremsstrahlung radiation. Following this, the course will focus to both the theory and application of the various detector materials and technologies, including silicon strip and pixel detectors, liquid and solid scintillators, Cherenkov detectors, calorimetry systems, proportional wire chambers etc. Finally, the course will switch to covering the multi-detector and multi-technology particle physics

Based on the basic laws of electrical circuits, electrical processes in biotechnology are considered. Basic functions, classifications, standards, physical processes characterizing modes of basic electrical apparatus (EA) are given, with particular attention to biotechnology electrical equipment and the latest semiconductor equipment, as well as electrical safety issues. The functions of automation are discussed, the principles of system control are described. Methods of electrical measurement of non-electrical parameters are considered. Selection, regulation, diagnostics, reliability of electric apparatus. The use of sensors for the control of biotechnological processes is considered. The aim of the course is to provide students with possibility to obtain knowledge of the possibilities and regulations for the use of electricity, their practical uses and the principles of autonomous control of biotechnological processes. Course tasks: - Familiarise with the functions and application

The aim of the course is to provide students with basic knowledge of current issues in the development and implementation of various projects in the field of humanities, as well as to develop practical project planning, presentation and evaluation skills. The course pays special attention to the aspects of interdisciplinarity in project development and potential implementation, while considering the research interests, goals and general topicalities of the respective fields of humanities (Classical Studies, German Studies, Romance Studies, Russian and Slavic Studies, Baltic Sea Region Studies). Objectives of the study course: 1. to provide general information on the types of projects in the field of humanities, their development methodology and topicalities in the field; 2. to advance skills to systematically develop a project application, formulate and substantiate a project idea; 3. to raise awareness of potential difficulties and the options of overcoming them at project

The aim of the course is for students to gain an understanding of the activities and interests of Asian and Western countries in creating a geopolitical environment from the 18th century to the present day, focusing on Asian cultural, social, political, and international relations. The objectives of the course are to discuss issues such as: cultural anthropology of Asia, including languages, peoples and historical roots; types of organizations, agriculture, food and food production in Asia; demography and migrations; core areas of growth and diffusion in Asia; 19th-century European impact on East and Southeast Asia; China's and Japan’s response to the West; the decline and fall of empires in East Asia and the national resurrection of Asian states; the Cold War in Asia and postwar nation-building; the self-reinventing of Japan and China; the rise of nationalism in East Asia and its different models (Chinese, Japanese, etc.); power, authority, and the advent of democracy in Asia; new

The aim of the study course is to enhance students' understanding of the formation of cultural landscapes and their changes, as well as to strengthen the understanding of landscape heritage values and meanings. In the study course, the landscape is viewed as a heritage reflecting the historical spatial structures and landscape layers, the impact of socio-political changes and value systems. The course discusses both the historical meanings of the landscape and the formation of new uses and meanings in the context of present-day changes, as well as considers the issues of landscape protection, planning and governance. Tasks of the study course: 1. To understand landscape concepts and different applications in academic, applied and policy contexts; 2. To analyze the formation of landscape spatial structures and the driving forces of landscape change; 3. To describe the historical landscape layers in Latvia; 4. To examine the issues of place identity and associative values
