Revitalizing Islamic Higher Education Curriculum: a Case Study at PBI UIN Ar-Raniry

This study aims to find out the views of PBI students on the Islamic curriculum and also to find out things that must be revitalized, especially in character education. The method used in this research is qualitative research. This study consisted of seventeen interview questions. There are ten PBI students who have studied subjects under the Islamic curriculum. The data collection technique used was semi-structured interviews. The results of the study show that the Islamic curriculum provides many benefits for improving student character education and also that the Islamic Curriculum at PBI currently still requires revitalization in several parts such as learning methods, teaching styles, and also in the system for choosing Islamic curriculum courses which are still in the optional system. I also found that the Islamic curriculum in PBI can change the way students dress and speak to be more polite.
