Turiba University Computer Systems - opinions?

Jautājums/Question

Hi everyone.

I’m considering applying to Turība University in Riga for the Bachelor’s degree in Computer Systems (CS) for the spring semester.

I’m an international student, so I’d really appreciate hearing from people who are currently studying at Turība or have graduated recently, especially from Computer Systems/IT.

I’d like to know your honest opinion about:

• How is the quality of teaching in Computer Systems?

• Are the professors knowledgeable and helpful?

• How much actual programming/coding do you do?

• Are the courses academically challenging, or is it relatively easy to pass?

• How is the administration and communication with students?

• Are there good opportunities for internships and jobs after/during the degree?

• How do employers in Latvia view a Turība CS degree?

• What is the international student experience like?

• If you could choose again, would you choose Turība for CS? Why or why not?

I’ve seen some older Reddit posts saying that Turība has a weak reputation in Latvia, so I’m especially interested in recent experiences (2024–2026) rather than older opinions.

Please share both positive and negative experiences. I’m mainly looking for an honest opinion before making my decision.
