In addition to the theological study, Krasić also attended the Vatican School of Palaeography, Diplomatics and Archive Administration. Krasić received his first doctorate at the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas making a historical dissertation on the subject of the Dominican Congregation of Dubrovnik in 1970. In 1985 Krasić received a doctorate in the field of history by dissertation about Stjepan Gradić . His professorship Krasić started as a research assistant in 1973 at the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas. Ten years later he became a full professor teaching history and methodology of scientific work.
In the book General University of the Dominican Order in Zadar or Universitas Jadertina 1396 - 1807 published in 1996 Krasić discovered that in Zadar the first Croatian university was founded in 1396. It had faculties of philosophy and theology with the privilege of giving the highest academic titles of baccalaureate and doctorate. His work had a great scientific and cultural importance for the Croatian society. Until then, the University of Zagreb founded in 1669 was considered the oldest in Croatia. Based on that discovery the Croatian Parliament in 2003 awarded the title of the university to the Faculty of Humanities in Zadar.
In October 2015, Krasic has been unanimously elected as a member of the International Academy of Engineering because of his distinguished studies in the humanities which has uncovered many hitherto unknown aspects of the history of engineering and technology.[ 2]
