demographic phenomenon. The primary purpose of the paper is to emphasize

following period. The main aim of the research is directed towards examining of
the students of State University of Novi Pazar related to migration movements. The
most significant migration tendencies have been elaborated within the paper being
characteristic for student population. Also, a part of the results have been presented
within the paper of the empirical research “The Analyse of Attitudes and Opinions
of the Youth Related to Migration Movements by Starting Own Business”. The
devastating results, among others, show that one third of the future highly educated
population of Novi Pazar thinks on leaving this place permanently. The research
results should serve as a base to creators of the migration policy with the aim of
planning of the activities of creating a strategy that shall contribute to creation of
an appropriate ambient for the youth to stay in Novi Pazar, or after finishing their
studies, to prepare to come back to the city temporally. Otherwise, regardless of
the current high birth rate, the city shall start to be emptied demographically in the
future, but also stay without necessary developing intellectual potential, where its
further sustainability shall be endangered.
