Technical Identity in a MergerProcess : Between a Rock and a Hard Place
2020
University mergers are sites of self-reflection where the identities of the institutions in question are juxtaposed and challenged.

Through interview data, we shed light on the self-conception of the technical university compared with the other higher education institutions. According to our analysis, the identity of the technical university is constructed and represented in relation to the aspects of society and entrepreneurialism, academic discipline and, particularly, the technic…

Pirmie pavadoņu novērojumi Latvijas Universitātē pirms 60 gadiem
2018
Latvijas Universitātes Muzeja virtuālā izstāde „Pirmie pavadoņu novērojumi Latvijas Universitātē pirms 60 gadiem” stāsta par 1957. – 1958. gadu, kad tika palaisti pirmie Zemes mākslīgie pavadoņi. Universitātes astronomi aktīvi iesaistījās to novērošanā, jo bija nepieciešams noteikt pavadoņu orbītas. Sākumā notika pavadoņu vizuālie novērojumi, kuros bija iesaistīti daudzi studenti. Tā kā tie nebija pietiekami precīzi, astronomi sāka domāt par pavadoņu fotografēšanu. Pirmos uzņēmumus ieguva 1958. gadā uz LU galvenās ēkas jumta Raiņa bulvārī 19. Kamera, ar kuru tas veikts, glabājas Latvijas Universitātes Muzejā. Turpmākajos gados Latvijas Universitātes astronomi izvirzījās pavadoņu novērošanas…
