本論文的目的是為了指出在捷克共和國最近所提議到的撥款獎勵贊助大專教育體系中的的好處和可能的缺點（也包含討論私人資金的撥款贊助）。
文件中應審查兩種不同的解釋資金系統，一為自由黨派系的觀點和捷克社會黨派觀點。
本論文會試圖找尋到和解釋可能的缺點和解釋（如同左派的觀察者們的表述）和大專教育體系(文中以下簡稱為TES) 撥款贊助改革可能產生的積極影響，工商業污水附加費的資金改革（從自由黨的觀察--右翼分析中得知）。
此論文會展示說明在高等教育領域是否對如何市場力量有利，以及和他們如何在高等教育體系中反映出其中的效率和公平性。文中還會當提供人們來自不同領域和不同角度的採訪及探討更多的原因細節。
觀察中包括了三種型式的高等教育機構的研究，這些為—美國的一般模式，瑞典模式，和專為圖利而成功大學—如法國里昂。這些模型結構提供捷克撥款贊助研究的範圍比較和所可能產生的影響。

The purpose of this thesis is to map possible benefits and drawbacks of the newly proposed funding system of tertiary education system in the Czech Republic (with a focus on an issue of private funding).
The paper should examine two different interpretations of the funding system, that is the perspectives of “Liberal” part and “Socialist part” of the Czech political spectrum. The thesis will try to find and explain possible drawbacks (as they are expressed by left-wing oriented observers) and
possible positive effects of a proposed tertiary education system funding reform (as observed by the liberal, right-wing, analysts and observers).
The paper should demonstrate how market forces are and/or are not beneficial in a tertiary education sphere, and whether and how they can be reflected in efficiency and equity of tertiary education system.
This paper should also provide interviews with people from different fields and of different perspectives and explore their reasoning in more detail. The observations included in the research demonstrate three models of higher-education system; these are a general USA model, a Swedish model, and a concrete model of a profitable successful college, EM Lyon, France.
These models should offer a comparison and possible implications for the Czech TES funding reform; these possible implications should be a part of a conclusion of this paper.
