Tyburcová, Iva ; Vostrovská, Zdenka (advisor) ; Vašenda, Jan (referee)
This diploma thesis addresses the tertiary education in Denmark. Education and investment in human capital are the key factors for economic growth nowadays. This thesis describes a system of education in Denmark, focusing on tertiary education. It analyzes the indicators that are related to higher education. Among these indicators are length of study, the amount of earnings according to educational attainment and unemployment. These indicators are presented in an international context and are compared with the values of countries in the European Union and countries belonging to the OECD. This thesis is focused on the Danish tertiary education mainly because in Denmark, college students are viewed differently than in the Czech Republic. Students at universities in Denmark have the option to receive subsidies and loans that are available to everyone. As a result, Denmark ranks among countries with the highest expenditure on education relative to GDP. In conclusion, the thesis evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of the system in Denmark and also comes up with proposals to improve the system.
