RSU campus
The city campus of RSU provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Riga has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. During the period of study, students can use the university library, where they can do homework and write scientific papers. RSU regularly accepts students for international exchange programs, providing both local and international students with the opportunity to come into contact with different cultures and gain unique experience.
