The Quality Agency for Higher Education (AIKA) is currently in the process of reviewing all study fields and related study programmes and ensuring that the decisions on accreditation are taken. The assessment and accreditation of study fields is carried out according to the schedule foreseen by the Law on Higher Education Institutions.

AIKA organises the assessment and accreditation of study fields in accordance with the Standards and guidelines for quality assurance in the European Higher Education Area (ESG) and the related national legal framework.

In the first half of 2025 AIKA has produced thematic analysis on the fields “History and Philosophy” and “Geography and Earth Sciences”. These analyses provide an overview on the results obtained during the assessment and accreditation of the respective study fields.

The study field “History and Philosophy” is offered by the University of Latvia and Daugavpils University, while the study field “Geography and Earth Sciences” is offered only by the University of Latvia.

The thematic analysis on the study field “History and Philosophy” is available here (in Latvian).
