During the times of Tsarist Russia, women who intended to obtain an official diploma in higher education were obliged to go abroad. However, they were permitted to attend special courses for women that were given by the universities of Moscow, St. Petersburg, and other large universities of the Russian Empire. After the deposition of the tsar in 1917, doors were opened for women to obtain officially recognized higher education in the Polytechnic Institute of Riga in Moscow, and the first females enrolled there in 1918. The University of Latvia provided a variety of options for students in sciences. From 1919 to 1940, 2065 women graduated from the University of Latvia, which made 30,18% of the total amount of all the students. A number of young female specialists became lecturers of the University. The majority of them – forty – worked at the Department of Medicine, eight at the Department of Chemistry; six at the Department of Philosophy and Philology, and six at the Department of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. Less interest was shown in some other fields: two women worked at the Department of Engineering, two – at the Department of Economics and Law and only one – at the Department of Veterinary Medicine. Eight PhD theses were defended: two of them – abroad, six – at the University of Latvia.
