With an opportunity of demographic bonus in the future, the best political therapy must be implemented to young people as a guarantee of the well-functioning of democracy, in which some of them are higher education students. Political education in higher education is constructed in both formal and non-formal forms. In the formal form, it is carried out through political teaching, while the non-formal form is related to the way individuals summarize political knowledge through reflection on a political system. It can be carried out together between teaching through Pancasila and Citizenship Education in the curricular domain and social learning through student organizations in the non-curricular domain.
