Zhodnocení výběru terciárního vzdělání v souvislosti s nadcházejícím upatněním na trhu práce v České republice v roce 2023

The topic of the bachelor thesis revolves around how tertiary education students consider their employment prospects in relation to salary levels in 2024 within the territory of the Czech Republic. The main objective of the thesis is to examine, through a questionnaire survey, the influences shaping decisions for tertiary education among current students in connection with the labor market. The theoretical part of the thesis introduces relevant factors in the choice of study and motivation for completing tertiary education. Additionally, economic theories directly and indirectly related to the labor market are described. The practical part of the thesis begins with an overview of macro indicators within the education and labor market in the Czech Republic. The subsequent aim of the thesis is to verify the main hypothesis, according to which students in technical and economic fields often have above-average expectations regarding gross salaries compared to other fields. This hypothesis is tested based on data obtained from the questionnaire survey and confirmed through chi-square testing. Furthermore, an auxiliary hypothesis is examined, which assumes that students who study solely to prolong their student status or under family pressure have lower expectations regarding their employment prospects after completing their studies. This hypothesis was refuted based on the conducted analysis.
