The link between education and the labor market has recently become the focus of political debate. Higher education of the Republic of Croatia is in the reform process in the last ten years. The aim of the research is to analyze the students' attitudes of study program Agroeconomics, Faculty of Agriculture about the studying quality and to determine their readiness for the labor market based on the surveyresults and official dataregarding unemployment. Survey was conducted on a sample of 62 undergraduate and graduate students of Agroeconomics. The results suggest that students are interested in studying Agroeconomics, they do not choose Agroeconomics because they were not on the list of desired course. In general, students do not consider their knowledge sufficient for working skills. The big problem is the inability to provide professional practice in a quality way where students can critically evaluate and apply their knowledge. A better promotion of the profession to the employers and generally better cooperation and communication with them is necessary. Furthermore, it is necessary to implement the adaptation of the study curriculum in accordance with the labor marketdemand.
