Financování vysokého školství v ČR a na Slovensku: koeficienty ekonomické náročnosti

Public universities funding is a very important topic that affects the development of living standards and education of each country. Part of this thesis is an analysis of the current financing of higher education with a focus on the first budget heading in the Czech Republic and its equivalent in Slovakia, including developments and changes in recent years. The aim of the thesis is to create an alternative calculation of the coefficient of economic demands using the coefficient of study field used in Slovakia. The resulting estimates of the coefficients of the field for the Czech Republic are compared with the current values of the Czech coefficients of economic demands, Slovak coefficients of study field and both coefficients based on the article (Hužvár & Rigová, 2010). After data adjustment only 50 so-called homogenous faculties, or university-wide workplaces at public universities without faculty division, out of original count of 148 faculties or university-wide workplaces of public universities remained for performing the calculation properly. The result of the thesis is the finding that the coefficient of economic demands is not the same as the coefficient of study field, which is based only on personnel demands. The diploma thesis could be followed by extending the formula for calculation by adding other costs to better match the coefficient of economic demands, unifying the organizational ranking of other staff across faculties and calculating the coefficient of study field of inhomogeneous faculties.
