ABSTRACT

This article explores the important role that universities play in cultivating students' political awareness. Universities encourage students to actively participate in political life and develop political literacy by providing diverse courses, practical activities, and creating an open and free academic environment. In terms of course design, universities focus on the combination of political theory learning and practical problems, enabling students to have a deep understanding of the mechanisms of political operation. In terms of practical activities, universities encourage students to participate in political clubs, volunteer services, and other activities, applying political knowledge to practical situations. At the same time, universities uphold academic freedom, encourage open discussions, and provide students with a platform to freely express their views and engage in critical thinking. Through these measures, universities aim to cultivate students' political responsibility, civic awareness, and critical thinking abilities, contributing to their comprehensive development and social progress.
