The master's thesis is based on higher education and the status of categorised sportsman from the feminine prospective with the main focus on the effect of the status during higher education. With the introduction of the Bologna reform, the obligatory attendance at the lectures and more and more important realisation of the dual career’s values, the mentioned status and maintaining the dual career, sport and studies, got a higher importance in the society. The youth today realises what kind of life follows after the end of one of the careers. The thesis includes two parts, the theoretical and empirical. The theoretical part includes secondary sources, and it briefly and complexly presents the perspective of the main themes of the dissertation, highlights the problem of education’s democratization, the educational limitation for women, the sociology of sport and the construction of the women involvement in the dual career and the sociological perspective on the education and sport. The theoretical part is concluded with the presentation of the quantitative analysis where we answer the questions about the number of dual careers in the study, based on the example of two faculties. The empirical part includes methodology, presents a pattern, the process of work, contents and analyses the results of the qualitative study of the example which is based on ten semi-structured interviews. They were carried out with sportswomen who study and did have/have a status of a categorised sportswoman during their studies. Besides gender, common to all of the interviewees is the fact that they actively took part in sports activities. At the end of the thesis we explain the main findings and finish with a conclusion which is based on the analysis of the empirical part of the thesis and the main emphasis of the thesis. The findings from the analysis reveal that the status of a categorised sportswoman has an effect on the higher education of sportswomen which is shown in the extension of the studies for at least one academic year.
