In 1935, the \u201cDepartment of Geography and History\u201d was established for the first time in Thailand under the Faculty of Arts, Chulalongkorn University, according to the Chulalongkorn University Act, 1934. It can be said that Geography was officially recognized as an academic discipline since then, although it was administratively affiliated with the same department as the History department.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Subsequently, the workload of the Department of Geography and History increased progressively.\u00a0 Each department had its own philosophy, content, techniques, study methods, and research approaches. Therefore, the Department of Geography and History was divided into two departments, on May 18, 1972. Associate Professor Phaitoon Phongsatorn served as the first head of the Department of Geography and concurrently held the position of the Dean of the Faculty of Arts during the same period (1972-1976).<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Department of Geography at Chulalongkorn University currently has a distinguished faculty with Ph.D. degrees from prestigious universities in Europe, the UK, and the USA. The department offers undergraduate, master\u2019s, and doctoral programs in Geography and Geoinformatics. Additionally, it engages in academic and research collaborations with leading international institutions, including the National University of Singapore (NUS), University College London (UCL), the University of Bristol, the University of Sussex, the University of Salzburg, and the Chinese University of Hong Kong.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
