Abstract
The strengthening of character education has become a national vision emphasized in Presidential Regulation No. 87 of 2017 on Strengthening Character Education (PPK). This is crucial for reinforcing the national identity in the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0, which brings both positive and negative impacts on various aspects of life. To prevent the negative impacts, systemic efforts are needed, including in education. This study aims to understand the role of civic and Pancasila education in strengthening human literacy among students at Universitas Negeri Medan. The research method used is qualitative with a literature study approach, collecting data from journals, books, and other sources. Data analysis employs the Miles and Huberman approach, namely data reduction, data display, and data verification. The results show that Pancasila and civic education play an important role in shaping the character and human literacy ready to face the challenges of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 era. By instilling the values of Pancasila and the principles of citizenship, this education helps students develop critical thinking skills, ethics, and social responsibility. The integration of character education into the curriculum also strengthens national identity and builds a society adaptive to global changes, creating a generation that is intelligent and strong in character.
