Educational excursions to companies are organized, and study content includes seminars and diverse practical components designed to provide real-world industry understanding.

Each year, during the second semester, students undertake an internship either in Latvia or abroad. The University’s Career Centre assists students in finding internship placements, although students may also secure placements independently.
