The Financing of Tertiary Education in the Czech Republic and the Federal Republic of Germany
ŠPAČKOVÁ, Veronika
It is generally recognised that education systems play a fundamental role in our societies and economies. They provide populations with access to knowledge and the opportunity to develop competences and skills. These are important for the well-being of individuals, the good functioning of societies and economic growth. Despite the fact that Federal Republic of Germany and Czech Republic are neighbouring countries and both are members of European Union, each has a different educational system and different system of university financing. The aim of this master thesis is to determine the main differences in financing of education in the Czech Republic and Federal Republic of Germany with a focus on tertiary education and also to propose a suggestion that would lead to the improvement of the tertiary education financing system of the Czech Republic. In the Czech Republic public universities receive funds from the state budget towards their running and capital costs. Higher education institutions receive a financial contribution based on the number of students and graduates, the economic costliness of the relevant study programme and certain quality and performance indicators. The Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports is also used to finance public universities through project grants. Part of the budget is allocated to schools on the basis of qualitative criteria. In Germany the public financing arrangements for the education system are the result of decision making processes in the political and administrative system in which the various forms of public spending on education are apportioned between Federation, states (Länder) and local authorities (Kommunen) and according to education policy and objective requirements.

The Bologna process: Trends and objectives in Czech higher education
Voslařová, Barbora ; Vostrovská, Zdenka (advisor) ; Kotýnková, Magdalena (referee)
The paper is dedicated to mapping the basic development of the Bologna process and its main priorities until 2012, mainly thanks to documents written during conferences held. It describes in more detail the selected targets, such as mobility, national qualifications framework and the introduction of a three-level structure of education in the European Higher Education Area, which was created by the Bologna process. The paper describes these priorities, especially from the perspective of the Czech Republic and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. On the basis of mutual comparisons I discover some deficiencies of Czech implementation and deduce ways to effectively deal with these shortcomings. I mention the need to remodel programs of Bachelor cycle in more professionally oriented programs. Hypothesis of this paper is that the implementation of the priorities of the Bologna process has a positive impact on the Czech higher education. The paper this assertion does not confirm nor disprove. It only points out, that in the long run will show the overall positivity or negativity of the Bologna process in the Czech Republic.
