Topics for supervision

Bachelor theses

Students interested in writing an empirical thesis are invited to contact me by e-mail in order to discuss specific topics. Below I present some general inspirations:
(1) Applied topics using econometric analysis
- analysis of crime level/ happiness/ public spendings, etc.
- estimation of demand elasticity
- influence of institutions on country performance
- etc.
(2) Labor economics
- studies using the European Union Labour Force Survey microdata (analyzing unemployment duration, occupational sorting, marriage patterns, fertility, etc.)
- discrimination in the labor market (gender/racial)
- regional differences in employment structure (are there typically "female" regions? are there typically "uneducated" regions?)
- influence of labor market institutions (e.g. minimum wage settings, employment protection legislation) on unemployment
- etc.
(3) Economics of education
- "overeducation" - are there too many college graduates?
- modeling educational choices of Czech youth
- analyzing cross-country differences in educational attainment
- etc.
