Research of the relationship between human capital and economic growth has been significantly developing since 1960s'. This thesis aims to contribute to the topic of human capital, map its importance in the theoretical and empirical economics and examine the influence on macroeconomic growth. In most of the countries human capital and education are budgeted mainly from the public resources thus is the human capital theory important for the public sector as well. First part of the thesis presents the main growth models and its evolution concerning also the human capital. In the second part there is a summary of the most important empirical literature. In the third part I present and comment the results of the empirical analyses. The benchmark data panel covers 92 countries within years 1960-2005. The method of analyses is panel data regression. The primary finding of the thesis is confirmation of the positive influence that human capital has on the economic growth. Third part also tests the most adequate proxy of the human capital.

Pálešová, Linda ; Urbánek, Václav (advisor) ; Kubík, Rudolf (referee)
This thesis discusses the possibilities of funding terciary education in the Czech Republic. The first section deals with funding of an existing educational system and its shortcomings. They result in the necessity of higher education reform, which can not be implemented without additional funds provided by the student participation in the form of tuition fees. The issue of tuition fees, its forms and arguments for and against are therefore described in the next section of this paper. Relatively large part is further given to the financial support from the state government, which is inevitable in case of introducing tuition fees. At first I resume current direct and indirect financial support and highlight its inefficiency. Subsequently, I describe and analyze three specific financial models of student loan funding base, which I compare and evaluate. In conclusion I recommend the most efficient model.
