Abstract

The higher education system in Indonesia still adheres to two sides, namely science education and religious education on the other side. The separation of the two parts of science between science and religion seems to have not found a common ground. Until now, the integration between the two continues to be discussed and the right formula to meet it is sought. By using literature study methods and supported by the analysis of educational discourse, the results of the study of this paper show that first, the division between science and religion which was then followed institutionally, was the remnants of Dutch colonial politics. Second, Islamic education institutions, especially pesantren, which were originally a place of learning religion and a means of resistance to colonialism, experienced institutionalization and continued to maintain distance from the study of science and technology. Islamic education is more dominant as school and belief conservation than as a center of scientific study.
