In various innovate methods, the application of theories of some emerging disciplines as reference is a common way to guide the innovation. The introduction of the synergetics theory to the ideological and political education of college students can promote the full integration of various elements related to ideological education, which has very important practical significance for the innovation of ideological and political education of college students. At present, college students’ ideological and political education is challenged by problems such as diversified beliefs, differences in values, and lack of collective consciousness.
