Kutilová, Alena ; Křečková Kroupová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Nurkovičová, Jasmína (referee)
This thesis deals with the subject of Czech and German cultural standards and the way they influence the daily lives of exchange students. The main objective lies in the abstraction and definition of cultural standards of this specific target group. The theoretical part introduces different approaches to the term culture and further describes two main concepts of cultural studies -- the methodology of cultural dimensions and cultural standards. The practical part opens with an introduction to German history, economy and points out the leading role that this country has in the international relationships. Following is the list of possibilities for exchange study programmes at the University of Economics and the summary of activities that are organized by the International Studies Centre. Most importantly, this part sums up the results of the research I did among the exchange students from the Czech Republic and Germany. Further, I compare the results of my research with the conclusions reached by Ivan Nový. In the conclusion there is a set of recommendations for the exchange students that should ease their first contact with a foreign culture.
