I discovered RGSL while looking for a career change, and was attracted to the international and interdisciplinary nature of the Master's program.  Riga is an amazing city and a convenient hub for participating in European discussions.  The city hosts numerous regional and European conferences, providing opportunities to engage and network with experts from around the Continent.  RGSL programs are taught in English, and the school's multi-national faculty together provide unparalleled educational and professional opportunities in developing the "law plus" skills needed for professional achievement and success.  The LL.M. in Law and Finance programme provides broad and academically rigorous study.  Its curriculum exposes students to both traditional and emerging areas of international importance, encouraging us to dig deeper into the interrelationships of law, business, finance, politics, and rights.

RGSL is a place where you, apart from your regular studies, are constantly given opportunities to participate in events such as discussions, workshops and moot courts where you add to your professional skills and network with already established professionals in the field, which is one of the many prerequisites for a successful career.

My experience at the Riga Graduate School of Law has been truly exceptional. After completing my Bachelor’s degree here, I continued my academic journey at RGSL by pursuing a Master’s in Law and Finance. The university’s multicultural environment, among both students and faculty, makes it an inspiring place to study and grow. The programme challenges students to think beyond national legal systems and engage with complex legal and financial questions, while also supporting both academic development and professional growth throughout the study process. It is an institution I am proud to be part of.
