Taking responsibility for the development of engineering in Latvia, RTU established Engineering High School in 2014. The studies commenced in 2015.
It is the first general secondary education establishment in Latvia that has been founded within the framework of a university. RTU intends to give the most talented Latvian schoolchildren the opportunity to take study courses in exact and natural sciences at an advanced level preparing them for the engineering studies.
Special attention is paid to the integration of engineering studies and scientific research activities into the study process, using RTU faculties, motivating schoolchildren to get involved in research and creating a new generation of scientists.
