虽然朝鲜三国时期(公元前世纪)之前就有各种最古老的地理数据记录,但将地理视为一门独立学科并将人类与其自然环境联系起来的主要材料直到世纪才被写入。自那时以来,出版了一些地理材料,主要是区域研究和地图。世纪末,地理学作为一门现代学科被引入韩国的中小学教育。地理,特别是老式的区域地理,直到1945年才在大多数学校教授。在大学一级地理作为一个学科的学术研究是发展在其他部门,特别是历史和地质,在庆尚帝国大学这是根据日本的管理。第一个地理系于1946年在首尔国立大学教育学院成立。一年后,庆北国立大学在教育学院设立了地理系。这些大学的毕业生自然在韩国地理学科的发展中扮演了重要的角色。目前,韩国有24所大学设有24个独立的地理系和3个地理系与其他社会科学相结合。此外,还有11所师范学院将地理作为主科进行教学。只有一所大学,韩国外国语大学,提供地理课程作为通识教育的一部分,尽管没有地理系。虽然教育学院各系的大多数毕业生进入中学系统担任地理教师,但在社会科学学院接受培训的其他地理学家则在各个专业领域工作,包括研究机构、政府机构和私营公司。地理学硕士学位可从14所大学的研究生院获得,包括10个MA和6个M。程序。硕士课程于1951年在首尔国立大学和庆北国立大学开始,1958年在庆熙大学开始。其余的大学在20世纪60年代或之后开始了他们的课程。八所大学提供博士课程:首尔国立大学、东国大学、庆熙大学、建国大学、梨花女子大学、成信女子大学、庆北国立大学和春南国立大学。已有十多人获得博士学位。在这些大学的地理和60多名学生注册。
Although various records of the oldest geographic data precede the Three Kingdoms period (second century BC) in Korea, major materials which treated geography as a separate discipline and related humans to their physical environment were not written until the eleventh century. Since then a number of geographic materials, mainly regional studies and maps, have been published. At the end of the nineteenth century, geography as a modern discipline was introduced to elementary and secondary education in Korea. Geography, especially the oldfashioned regional geography, was taught in most schools until 1945. At the college level geography as a subject of scholarly inquiry was developed within other departments, especially history and geology, in the Kyongsung Imperial University which was under Japanese administration. The first geography department was founded in the College of Education, Seoul National University in 1946. One year later Kyongbuk National University created a department of geography in the College of Education. Graduates of these universities have naturally played an important role in the development of geography in Korea over the years.There are currently 24 independent departments of geography and three geography departments combined with other social sciences at 24 universities in the country. In addition, geography is taught as a major subject in 11 teachers’ colleges. Only one university, Hankuk University of Foreign Studies, offers a geography course as part of a liberal education even though there is no geography department. While most of the graduates from departments in colleges of education enter the secondary school system as geography teachers, other geographers who were trained in colleges of social science are working in various professional fields including research institutes, government agencies and private companies. A master’s degree in geography can be obtained from the graduate schools of 14 universities including 10 MA and 6 M. Ed. programs. The master’s program began at Seoul National University and Kyongbuk National University in 1951 and Kyunghee University in 1958. The remaining universities began their programs during or after the 1960s. Eight universities offer doctoral programs: Seoul National University, Dongguk University, Kyunghee University, Konkuk University, Ewha Woman’s University, Sungshin Woman’s University, Kyongbuk National University, and Chunnam National University. More than one dozen persons have already obtained a Ph. D. in geography from these universities and more than 60 students are registered.
