Vzdělanost v zemích EU
Drábková, Natalie
Drábková, N. Education in EU countries. Bachelor thesis. Brno: Mendel University in Brno, 2023. The bachelor's thesis deals with the existence of a relationship between the share of the tertiary educated population and the economic level of the country in selected EU states. In the theoretical part, tertiary education and its impact on the labour market are discussed, as well as academic failure and lifelong learning, and finally, the implementation of the Europe 2020 Strategy and the expansion of Industry 4.0. In the analytical part, the educational structure of representative countries, which were selected on the basis of cluster analysis, is compared. Within the indicator of the university students, elementary characteristics were used to describe the development of the time series of Latvia, Luxembourg, Germany, Spain and the Czech Republic. Finally, a multiple regression was constructed for Germany and Spain. Regression analysis showed that the share of university graduates affects economic performance in Germany. In the other hand, in Spain was no correlation between the given indicators. At the same time, the influence of the unemployment rate on the GDP per inhabitant was proven in this country. At the end of the thesis, it is recommended to politicians to motivate students to study STEM fields, which have a significant impact on economic performance.

Sochová, Lucie ; Rychtaříková, Jitka (advisor) ; Fialová, Ludmila (referee)
Contemporary education in international perspective Abstract The thesis addresses the topic of contemporary education in European countries with a focus on tertiary education. The first part is devoted to a general overview of education in Europe, the International Classification of Education ISCED, organizations dealing with education and their activities in the form of programs, collection of internationally comparable data or publications. It includes a description of education policies in European countries and a description of education systems in selected countries. The second part analyses data for 2020 provided by the OECD on tertiary graduates, which are considered in terms of international classifications, age or gender. A cluster analysis of bachelor and master graduates, divided by gender, is carried out in order to identify the presence of regions with similar characteristics and to further analyse them to show different trends depending on the gender of the graduates, level or fields of study. Key words: tertiary education, International Classification of Education ISCED, education policy, education system, graduates, cluster analysis

Horizontal job-education mismatch in the Czech Republic
Veřtát, Jakub ; Pertold, Filip (advisor) ; Pintera, Jan (referee)
Most studies examining a mismatch between education and job focus only on vertical mismatch, i.e. the discrepancy between the level of education attained and the level required for a given job. Less attention has been paid to the match between the field of study and job, so-called horizontal mismatch. This thesis explores horizontal mismatch among tertiary-educated workers in the Czech Republic. First, we measure the incidence of horizontal and full mismatch (combination of horizontal and vertical mismatch) between 2005 and 2019. Second, we examine determinants of horizontal mismatch using the binary logit model and full mismatch determinants using the multinomial logit model. We apply two different objective measures of horizontal mismatch. The results suggest that the incidence of horizontal mismatch has slightly decreased since 2005, while the incidence of full mismatch has more than doubled. Among other factors, the field of study significantly affects the likelihood of horizontal and full mismatch. Gender influences only the probability of full mismatch.

This Master thesis called Approach to university and non-university media studies in the Great Britain and Germany: A comparative study compares the approaches of Great Britain and Germany to tertiary education, which is thematically linked to the media.

The boundaries of this subject are not specifically stated, which provides countries with an opportunity to put their own concept into this subject. This thesis examines tertiary education connected to media institutions of higher education, within individual study programs, in leading professional publications, in the national assessment of educational documents and in approach of multinational organizations. The text defines relevant bodies and syllabi, identifying core competences of graduates of these studies, the processes through which they become experts and educational activities connected to media education. The thesis analyzes differences, expectations and methods in the documents using an in-depth analysis. The core question is whether the approaches of the Great Britain and Germany remain different...
