The aim of our study is to describe and analyze the distribution of costs devoted to higher education across the public and private dimension. The following section addresses the size, general structure and funding principles of Czech higher education system, as well as particular components of higher education funding provided from public sources. These are targeted either directly to students, to the families with students or may take a different form. We then present and discuss the output obtained from both macro and micro-level data.
