Summary/Abstract: This study aims to describe simply the strengthening of the concept of religious moderation and harmonization of knowledge as an effort to prevent radicalism at IAIN Pekalongan. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive analysis approach. The results showed that the strengthening of the concept of religious moderation at IAIN Pekalongan through: the establishment of a house of religious moderation and the internalization of moderate Islamic values in lectures were carried out with four approaches, namely: a contributive approach, an additive/additional approach, a transformative approach, and a social action approach. The four taglines owned by IAIN Pekalongan, namely spirituality, scientific, entrepreneurship, and nationality, were transformed to achieve the vision as a leading and competitive campus in the development of Indonesian-minded science and technology at the national level in 2036. The implementation of the four values or taglines can be seen through the behavior Moderate attitude of IAIN Pekalongan students in facing various problems of life. Modernization of Islamic studies at IAIN Pekalongan is carried out through Islamization of Knowledge in all majors. Modernization is adopting new sciences that are in accordance with the needs of the times, but still maintaining the old traditions that are still relevant. IAIN Pekalongan which will transform into State Islamic University (UIN) also has the concept of harmonization or harmonization of knowledge. The concept is the integration of science, namely science, technology and religion. This integration between religion and science appears in the form of new courses such as Islamic mathematics.
