The aim of the course is to provide an in-depth knowledge of the latest trends in specialised social science research methods, in line with the doctoral student’s field, specialisation and design of the doctoral thesis, by improving cross-disciplinary awareness and knowledge of more sophisticated social science research methods, as well as skills and competence for independent research and critical evaluation of the research quality. The aim of the course is to ensure an in-depth knowledge of highly specialised and innovative social science research methods, to develop the skills and competence, and to provide an in-depth insight into the less frequently used tools in Latvia (NVivo, R, Python, GIS, Gephi, Ucinet, etc.). Language of instruction: Latvian and/or

The course includes sections of head and neck anatomy, topography and embryology. The purpose of the anatomical section is to create a modern state-of-the-art picture of the structure of the bones and joints, muscles, fascias, digestive and respiratory proximal parts of the human head and neck. As part of the course, students learn the blood supply of the head and neck, venous and lymphatic system, as well as inerration. In the process of training, special attention is paid to the anatomy and topography of the head and neck area. The course also includes the most common pathological syndromes and anatomical justification of pain pathways. The learning process uses both traditional and modern anatomical research and learning methods. The knowledge acquired in the course is the basis for the development of other medical sectors, without which it is not possible to continue medical studies. The embryology section teaches the development of head and neck structures and the microscopic

Culture is not just a collection of famous artworks, it is present in every area of our lives: identity and communication, everyday practices and events of the past, politics and economics, science and art. If we do not understand how culture is present in all these processes, we can understand neither ourselves nor others. Cultural theory provides the tools that help to become aware of and understand culture, its diversity and its impact on society. History of culture helps us to understand why we are what we are today and why we are not all the same. During the course we will learn not only different ways of thinking about society, but also how to apply methods of cultural theory and history in order to analyse historic and contemporary phenomena phenomena. The aim of the course is to get acquainted with multidisciplinary approaches to theoretical and practical analysis of cultural phenomena in cultural history and cultural theory. Tasks of the course: 1) get acquainted
