Abstract: The undoubted growing influence of science and higher education calls for an innovative institutional conception and the structural reform of the system based on it. The starting point of such an approach to legal regulation is the adaptation of the Croatian system of science and higher education to the new, globally recognized, leading role of education and scientific research in the overall social, economic, cultural and artistic as well as personal development. This role is evident in new technological and organizational patterns where human resources become (infrastructural) a prerequisite for innovative and effective progress. The new role, among other things, carries with it a special responsibility of science and higher education in addressing the accompanying social challenges. Philosophical, aesthetic, cultural and ethical aspects of high technologies and new realities require institutional solutions that encourage the accelerated development of both the system and quality of higher education and the intensification and raising of the international relevance of scientific research and innovation activities. This is a fundamental precondition for capturing the European development step and incorporating Croatian national identity into the evolution of the European civilization circle. As the quality of researchers and teachers, programs and institutions is the key to the reform transformation, the quality assurance system must be incorporated as an integral part of the appropriate legal solution
