Šťastný, Antonín ; Doležalová, Eva (advisor) ; Beneš, Zdeněk (referee)
The objective of this diploma thesis is to characterize the image of Luxembourgs in the Czech history textbooks in the 19th and 20th century. The work is based on the assumption that the history education takes a significant part in making a young person's identity. The thesis describes the development of this image and the way in which the educational literature reflected the atmosphere of the day and its transformation in the context of historical development. The dynamic development of the image of the Czech history of 14th and 15th centuries is the central theme of the work.

History of the Theological Faculty in Prague: From its foundation until 1419
Šenk, Martin ; Kubín, Petr (advisor) ; Doležalová, Eva (referee)
This diploma thesis focuses on the history of the faculty of theology in Prague from its foundation in 1347 until the outbreak of the Hussite revolution. This thesis first maps the assumptions of the establishment of general teaching in Prague and the founding act of Pope Clement VI. and Emperor Charles IV. Subsequently, the beginnings of teaching at the faculty of theology and its institutional development until 1419 are described. Special attention is paid to the issue of the papal establishment of the faculty, the organization of studies and the role of the Archbishop of Prague as the university chancellor. The internal difficulties of the faculty and the placement of the faculty of theology in the context of the history of Charles University are not neglected either. Methodologically, the work is based on a comparison of literature, and analysis of sources.

Efficiency and private financing in public higher education sector of the Czech Republic
Fidler, Vojtěch ; Pertold-Gebicka, Barbara (advisor) ; Víšek, Jan Ámos (referee)
Public higher education in the Czech Republic is financed by general taxation. Due to permanent lack of financial sources in the sector, there should be sought alternative ways of financing, among which private financing is considered to be the best alternative. Nevertheless, it is important that these additional funds are managed efficiently. Thus, next to private financing, the thesis also studies efficiency of the sector as these two areas are interrelated. The results of private funding model indicate feasible realization with relatively low negative impact on private rate of return. Using DEA method, the efficiency analysis reveals that although Czech universities are teaching efficiently, they lack efficiency in research. This suggests that current financing scheme should be adjusted accordingly. Higher education is also studied from theoretical perspective and discussed are such topics as quality, mass education or the recent reform proposal.

Directing the Course of History. Charles University as the Creator of its own Memory
Horký, Adam ; Pullmann, Michal (advisor) ; Šima, Karel (referee)
The thesis focuses on construction of specific "national" narration of history of Charles University in so called "short" twentieth century (1918-1998). It works with presumption that popular representations of history of Charles University are heavily influenced by Czech national narration of nations' history which roots can be traced as far as to the first half of the nineteenth century. Attention is paid to examination of various representations of the past - written, verbal, visual as well as to changes that the representations of the past underwent during the twentieth century in which several radically different political regimes ruled the Czech lands. While examining various simplifications and stereotypes in narration of the university history as well as personal development of individual historians and their influence on the image of university past, the work tries to show unifying aspects of the narratives of history of Charles University in the period in question.
