The summer break has started at SSE Riga
We will welcome our new Bachelor progamme students and start the academic year of 2020/2021 on August 17.
It is expected that lectures in the Bachelor programme will remain online until the end of October to make sure that all of our foreign students and faculty can take part in the study process. Based on the development and restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, SSE Riga later will offer on-site or blended learning - involving a mix of face-to-face teaching at the School, wherever that is possible and safe, as well as online learning where teaching cannot yet be in person. The academic content of the programme should not be affected by the form of instruction. We will continue to prioritize the health and safety of our students and follow the guidelines issued by the Government of Latvia, the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Education and Science.
All three Baltic States, compared to the rest of the world, have successfully managed the COVID-19 pandemic crisis. Very few new cases of coronavirus infection have been detected in Latvia in June. However, the situation may change rapidly, therefore as we all continue to get back into the routine, it is important to take everyday precautions.
