Apart from its beauty, Latvia also has an excellent education system. The medical universities in Riga are known worldwide. Therefore, more and more international students are interested in studying medicine in Latvia, especially in Riga.

The medical University of Latvia and the medical Riga Stradins University promote the high quality standards and education of their students.
