Summary/Abstract: This paper examines the results of a survey conducted in 2013 as part of a wider research entitled: Religious, moral and socio-political values ​​of students in Serbia, conducted by the Center for Religious Studies of the Institute for Philosophy and Social Theory. The survey was filled out by over a thousand students from all major university centers in Serbia. The aim of the survey data analysis was to determine the connection between three different dimensions of the student population in Serbia: socio-economic origin, economic attitudes and religiosity. It was established that socioeconomic background has a significant influence on the formation of economic attitudes and on the level of religiosity of students. It was also determined that religiosity affects the economic attitudes of students, but that this influence does not clearly lead to the creation of coherent attitudes on the issue of greater or lesser economic equality.
