Jeřábková, Tereza ; Balon, Jan (advisor) ; Uherek, Zdeněk (referee)
This study aims to identify and analyse the motivations and expectations of students who have decided to complete their full university studies in the UK. The thesis further examines the retrospective view of these students on their study abroad and their subjective perception of this experience. As part of the research, specific experiences that students had during their studies abroad and which had an impact on their personal development and life paths are investigated. Part of the study is also the identification of potential challenges and difficulties that students encountered in a foreign country and how these influences affected their motivation and determination to achieve their study goals. Last but not least, the work focuses on the assessment of student development at the personal and career level, thereby bringing insights into the benefits of this study format for the individual growth and professional perspectives of students.

Possibilities of studying tourism under the Erasmus+ programme for students from the University of Economics
Knopová, Patricie ; Jarolímková, Liběna (advisor) ; Indrová, Jarmila (referee)
This thesis examines the possibilities of studying tourism at partner universities of the University of Economics in Prague participating in the Erasmus+ programme. The aim of the thesis is to find universities which could offer new tourism courses for students from the University of Economics in Prague while studying abroad. To achieve this, the offer of tourism courses among all partner universities of the University of Economics in Prague was analysed. The analysis showed that the University of Economics in Prague does not have bilateral agreements involving tourism studies with some of the partner universities. These agreements lack the possibility of studying tourism at one level of study, campus or faculty on which tourism is taught. To facilitate negotiations on new bilateral agreements, it has been proposed to add specific tourism courses taught in English. Another aim of this thesis is to propose modifications of the tourism courses taught at the University of Economics in Prague, which should ensure easier recognition of the subjects studied abroad into the group of compulsory courses. To achieve this goal, the most frequently taught tourism courses were found. These courses were afterwards compared with similar courses taught at the University of Economics in Prague. However, the comparison showed that specific adaptations could not be recommended. The main contribution of this work is the examination of the current situation for outgoing tourism students and suggestions for improvements of this situation.

Hromková, Magdaléna ; Moree, Dana (advisor) ; Šloufová, Romana (referee)
Every year thanks to the Erasmus Programme hundreds of students spend a semester studying at a university abroad. In the Czech Republic available data cover only the number of student mobilities and of ECTS credits acquired, or show how the students were satisfied with their studies. The goal of the thesis is to find out whether, or how, the students' intercultural competence increased, how their view on citizenship changed, and how they perceive global citizenship. In the thesis, intercultural competence is measured purely quantitatively using the Multicultural Personality Questionnaire, citizenship is studied by the use of several open questions. Liberal model of citizenship is the most prominent among the students. As for global citizenship, the students' opinions vary. Most often, it was described as an affiliation to the Earth. Intercultural competence has not increased substantially in connection with the studies abroad. If not only academic development, but also increase in intercultural competence and development of responsible (global) citizens is to be achieved by studies abroad, students need to be better prepared for their stay.
