The aim of the Master's thesis is to demonstrate the ability to apply theoretical knowledge, academic skills and abilities independently in accordance with the requirements of the Master's study program in Economics. Master's thesis is an independent research work with original solution of a topical theoretical / practical problem under the guidance of a scientific supervisor. Theoretical generalizations are formulated in the Master's thesis, well-grounded proposals are formulated, hypotheses are raised and proved, correlations and regularities of factor influence are investigated, thus facilitating the student's learning to maintain problem solving motivation, creativity and preparing it for scientific research work and doctoral study programs. When submitting a master's thesis in e-studies, the data used in the empirical part (Excel, SPSS) must be added to the appendix. Tasks of Master's thesis: 1. to summarize, systematize, deepen and consolidate the theoretical knowledge

Study course aim: to provide participants with the opportunity to develop pedagogical skills and enhance understanding of the latest trends in geography teaching methodology in primary and secondary education stages. Within the course, participants will acquire essential principles of geography teaching, including (1) content and lesson planning for primary and secondary school geography courses, (2) the use of deep and meaningful learning principles in the teaching process, (3) development of formative and summative assessment tasks, (4) opportunities for differentiation in the teaching process, (5) preparation and facilitation of complex practical and research work, and (6) implementation of interdisciplinary topics. The main tasks of the study course: 1. Improve understanding of the structure and continuity of geography teaching content in primary and secondary education. 2. Enhance practical skills in planning result-oriented lessons. 3. Improve understanding of creating

The aim is to provide students with a basic knowledge of time series analysis, starting with concepts such as time series process, trend, stationarity, seasonality, spectrum and finally defining the popular ARMA processes, which are used to model many real time series. ARMA processes will be the focus of a large part of the course, looking at their properties, fitting them to data, estimating process coefficients and calculating forecasts and associated errors. Non-parametric statistical methods will also be used in both time series trend approximation and spectral analysis. The final part of the course is devoted to insights into financial time series as ARCH and GARCH processes as well as mixing processes describing dependence in general form. For practical exercises programming language R will be used. Tasks: learn the basic concepts of time series theory; analyse time series decomposition; model time series with popular ARMA processes by fitting them to real data; simulate ARMA
