Russian University Courses

Russian University Courses were set up in Riga in 1921 on the initiative and with the active participation of Professor Konstantin Arabazhin (1865-1929). The Courses provided an opportunity to acquire learning, similar in volume to what a university could provide, in Russian. However, the diploma issued by them did not carry any legal weight. In 1930 the Courses were re-structured into the Russian Institute of University Learning, which existed until 1937
