Journal Title: Asian Journal Social Sciences & Humanities - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 4

Abstract

Holistic education seems important to be neglected. It can be seen as an alternative in education in the middle of the flow of change which herds human culture to be more pragmatic and individualistic, just like the recent condition. The phenomenon of “craziness” - being crazy about appearance, shopping, information, power, and wealth - and the phenomenon of “shallowness” of meaning add to the list of the effect of information flow and bring humans to keep “chasing” dream. UHAMKA ha roles and responsibilities to develop holistic education. As a part of Muhammadiyah Higher Institution, UHAMKA adopts educational pattern which sees students with potential to be developed, so they can be people who realize their existence as individual, family member, society, citizen, and God’s servant and representative in the world. This writing aims to describe the role of UHAMKA in connection with the implementation of holistic education. The approach in this writing is institutional approach. The analysis shows that, institutionally, the role of UHAMKA in developing holistic education cannot be separated from four principles of Muhammadiyah Higher Institutions, namely: Teaching, Research, Community Service, and Islam &philosophy of Muhammadiyah. The direction of the principles is reflected in the vision of UHAMKA: becoming an excellent university which is superior in intellectual, emotional, and spiritual intelligence. The vision becomes a driving force for da’wah (teaching) and renewal (tajdid) movement of Muhammadiyah in order to realize real Islamic society.
