The aim of this diploma work is to find out the effectiveness of providing free-of-charge tertiary education to citizens of the Slovak Republic at Czech public universities. In the theoretical part, I will focus on researching motives of Slovak citizens to study in the Czech Republic from the point of view of theory regarding the expansion of human capital and the return on investment into education, as well as utilizing a questionnaire to research the preference in selecting schools outside Slovakia. Furthermore, I focus on the system of financing public universities in the Czech Republic. In the Czech Republic, students are provided with free-of-charge university education, if they complete the graduation examination from the Czech language or if they have another, officially verified, examination from the Czech language. As a result of the mutual agreement between both countries, citizens of the Slovak Republic have an exception negotiated in law 111/1998 Coll. about universities. The practical part focuses on calculating the costs to the public budget for the study of Slovak citizens as well as calculating the benefits, if they decide to work in the Czech Republic. The analysis arises from data of the MŠMT (Ministry of Education, Youth and Physical Education) and the ČSÚ (Czech Statistics Bureau) regarding the number of foreigners at universities as well as the system of financing universities from the statistics of the largest Czech universities, which I have obtained. From the collected data, I find out the representation of Slovak citizens in the individual years. I also attempt to calculate and generalize the approximate number of students, who completed their studies. I calculate the costs based on the individual years, where every student has a fixed sum in the given year, which the public budget incurs for him. I use these cohorts to calculate the benefits, which are divided based on the years and by means of the wage discount method, I find out the approximate amount of tax paid for the time period in which the Slovak citizens work in the Czech Republic.
