Bachelor thesis vs. Bachelor's thesis

Ahoj, prosím vás, jaká varianta “bakalářské práce” je správně? This bachelor thesis deals with… nebo This bachelor's thesis deals with…? Na internetu jsem se setkal s oběma varianty.

Děkuji, mějte se fajn!

Hi Vety, either version is possible. The relevant Google Ngram (click on Search lots of books) shows that the version with the apostrophe is much more prevalent, and that's the version I'd recommend. I ran a search, and the versions without the apostrophe tend to occur on the English pages of foreign (non-native English) universities.

Ok, great job! Thank you very much. Could I ask you one more thing? When I want to translate: “Tato bakalářská práce se zabývá problematikou práce s lidmi…” Could I translate it this way: “This bachelor's thesis deals with the issues of working with people…”?

Thank you

I wouldn't use “issues” (or even “issue”) in this context. “Issues” in the sense of “problems” are individual countable problematic aspects of a situation, and “the issues” (with the definite article) suggests “all the issues”, or the issues that have already been mentioned, but of course in the introduction to a thesis, the issues haven't been mentioned yet. “Issue” in this kind of context also tends to mean a socially or ethically controversial problem. If the subject matter is, for example, working with people with learning difficulties, then it's academically unwise to suggest that this kind of work is “an issue” [rozumí se “a problem”] because it suggests that the thesis may not be objective, and has an underlying negative bias.

This bachelor's thesis deals with the subject/topic of working with people … // The subject/topic of this bachelor's thesis is working with people … As an alternative to “deals with”, you can say “considers”, “studies”, “addresses”, “examines”, “focuses on”, “explores”, “describes”, etc.

Absolutely wonderful explanation! Thank you very much again! You really helped me!
