Abstract
Companies all over the world benefit from Industry 4.0, to fully harness its potential they need a skilled workforce. Hence, the goal of the paper is to recognize whether students, who represent the future workforce, are ready for the new technological conditions and challenges that these bring. Education at the academic level should follow and, in some cases, precede business conditions to ensure that students have the skills required in the labor market after graduating, both in hard skills and soft skills areas.
