Annotation | Eurostudent III is an international project that have started in 2000 and encompassed twenty different European countries. The research aims to compare social and economic conditions of students in different European countries, to overview students′ status in international context and create an appropriate strategy for Universities education policy. Each researcher could choose his own methods of data collection and construction of selective model. The Centre for Higher Education Studies (CHES) has created „Studentpanel“ for this purpose. It is a form of an electronical questionnaire for University students (CAWI- www.studentpanel.cz). The target group was divided into: traditional and non-traditional students. Nontraditional students are defined as those coming from smaller municipalities having only elementary or secondary education, whose fathers are the most often workmen On the other hand, traditional students comes from bigger municipalities, studying at University whose parents are usually well educated. As the research showed, both type of the students have different expectations, socio-economic conditions for studies and different experience with studies abroad. The research also disclosed that student´s family background influences significantly a choice of an academic discipline. Children whose parents have University degree tend to choose human sciences and law. Parents′ education and a type of student´s completed secondary education represent a cultural capital which pivotally influences student′s chance to study at prestigious University. |
