This study provides an overview of the conceptual understanding and behavior of multicultural values ​​at the Islamic College of Brebes, Islamic Religious Education (PAI) study program. Therefore, it is important to develop multicultural education, an educational process that provides equal opportunities for all students who come from different school backgrounds. Lecturers of Multicultural Education courses must design the learning process, prepare the curriculum and evaluation design, and lecturers who have multicultural perceptions, attitudes and behaviors, so that they become a part that provides a positive contribution to the development of multicultural attitudes and behaviors of their students.
