Human Capital and Investments in Health
Hrušková, Eva ; Chytil, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Katreniaková, Dagmara (referee)
The thesis deals with the influence of the human health as a part of the human capital on the economic growth. The term human capital and health is defined. The chosen economic models which involve them and illustrate their significance in context of the economic growth are presented. The central signification of the private investments in human health as a possible solution and support of the progressive economic growth is demonstrated on the example of current social and economic trend, the elongating lifespan, and the stagnant growth of the natality. The adverse demographic trend is specific not only for the Czech Republic but also for the other countries of the European Union. It begins to rise above like the significant limiting barrier for the further economic growth. Next, the health endowments are analysed as a natural component of the human capital and a prerequisite for an ensuring of the sustainable economic growth. From the above mentioned evolution the necessity of the health endowments is deduced. The quality of the population health becomes one of the preferences not only for the national governments of the European countries but also for the institutions of the European Union. The aim of this thesis is to quantify the influence of the private investments in human health on economic growth using the real data and the linear regression method.

Do the developed countries invest more in education?
Dlabáčková, Dorota ; Urbánek, Václav (advisor) ; Kubík, Rudolf (referee)
The bachelor thesis deals with the concepts of human capital and investment in human capital in macroeconomic terms. In the first part, this concept is mapped by a few definitions. Then I describe the history, the emergence of the first ideas connected with human capital, main leaders and their key ideas. Investments in human capital, i.e. simply in education, is presented in the concretion. The resulting comparison is performed on the OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) states. The analysis compares the investment in education and economic maturity of theindividual states. Investments in education are intended by expenditure (private and public) on education as a percentage of GDP. In the thesis, economic maturity is defined by several macroeconomic indicators, i.e. Gross Domestic Product levels(real GDP growth, GDP per capita), long-term unemployment and health care.
