【沿 革】

本校前身臺灣省立師範學院於民國35年6月5日成立時,即設置史地學系。首任系主任由院長李季谷先生兼任,37年由諶亞達先生承接為第二任,38年由沙學浚先生繼為第三任。51年史地學系擴成歷史與地理兩學系,56年7月1日本校改制為國立臺灣師範大學,地理學系仍隸屬文學院,仍由文學院院長沙學浚先生兼任系主任。59年8月本系成立地理研究所,由劉衍淮先生出任所長。60年8月沙院長為專心推展院務,系主任一職由賀忠儒先生承接,62年8月劉鴻喜先生接任研究所所長,系所合一後歷任系主任為陳國章先生、石再添先生、陳國彥先生、楊萬先生、蔡文彩先生、徐勝一先生、黃朝恩先生、潘朝陽先生、陳國川先生、丘逸民先生、歐陽鍾玲女士,現為蘇淑娟女士。

本系於民國59年8月成立碩士班,77年8月獲准成立博士班,83年成立「區域研究中心」,94年成立「地理資訊研究中心」,95年成立「地理教育研究中心」、「環境監測與規劃研究中心」、「地理影像實驗室」。地理學系之下,設有學士班、碩士班、博士班,結構完備,充分發揮本系的師資與設備應有之功能。

為配合各級政府教育政策的需求,本系也開設各種進修課程,如「地理碩士在職專班(週末班)」、「地理系空間資訊碩士在職專班(週末班)」及其他各類不定期舉辦的短期進修班等,提供中學老師、空間資訊人員進修的機會,在該進修管道中則多專注於上述地理思維的教育和教學轉化。

【課 程】

本系的發展早期以培養中學地理師資為主,因應社會發展之需求,本系除了培養地理學研究專門人才,培育中學地理師資,亦訓練環境監測與防災、國土規劃、GIS設計與應用、觀光遊憩理論與實務專業人才。

本系的課程設計,是兼顧理論與實務,從地理學的空間、人地、區域、地球科學的四大傳統出發,涵蓋自然、人文、區域、地理學方法與應用四個面向來規劃。

1.師資培育

培養各級學校地理學師資,其目的在於明瞭地理學的各種理論與實際,使其具備獨立研究與教學的能力。

2.環境監測與防災學程

厚植學生基礎地理學素養及監測環境能力,培訓其對環境經營管理具有整合性發展的競爭力。最終目標在開拓本校理論與技術整合、教學與應用整合、校園與社會整合、學術與產業整合之進階性任務。

3.區域與觀光規劃學程

【師資陣容】

本系師資陣容完整(專任教授11人、副教授8人、助理教授3人、專案助理教授1人),均具有博士學位,學有專精,研究成果豐碩。在教學方面,均能將各種先進的研究成果納入教材,涵蓋各種地理觀念及技術,使一般畢業學生擁有完整的地理知識,有能力利用各種地理觀念與技能,從事研究、教學或其他專業工作。

【圖書與設備】

本系圖書計有地理學專用書籍萬餘冊,中外文期刊三百餘種,大比例尺地形圖兩萬餘張、中外地圖集三百餘冊、航空照片圖三千餘張。「區域研究中心」為配合鄉土地理的研究與教學,先後蒐集甚多台灣、中國大陸、亞洲鄰近國家,乃至於全球各地相關之地理研究成果與地理資訊,包括自然環境與資源、地名、地圖以及各種方志、文獻及公私典藏文書等,並應用地理資訊系統 (GIS)技術,將蒐集到的各項資料加以分類整理、建檔、研究,以充實區域地理學術研究,奠定區域研究基礎。 系裡之實驗室及教室頗具規模,如地形實驗室、水文實驗室、氣候實驗室、人文與區域地理實驗室、空間資訊實驗室、電腦教室等,這些實驗室對教學與研究均具有重大意義及指標。

【教學與研究】

地理學以生活環境空間的現象為研究範疇,研究各種現象的空間分佈、關係及區域特性,並聚焦於如此社會環境空間特性和自然與人文環境如何相互為用。藉由人文和自然地理的理論建構、理論驗證和空間技術的精熟使用,解釋和理解現象的空間與環境面向和意涵,進而從規劃與設計的理念,提供空間環境趨吉避凶的思維與規劃,目的在於促進國家與社會的適切發展,並影響社會大眾守護生活環境。本系自民國59年成立碩士班及民國77年成立博士班以來,即秉承前述宗旨,從事精深的地理研究與教學,培養研究生的獨立研究能力。碩士班一年級,著重地理學各種以論和方法的研討,二、三年級則著重專題研究和論文寫作。博士班一、二年級,著重地理學分科高階領域的專業素養,三、四年級著重專題研究和論文寫作。碩博士班透過專題演講與相關課程安排,提供研究生肥沃的學術養份。學生之修課和論文寫作過程,指導教授和研究生緊密聯繫,形成活躍的學風。為積極促加強研究生的研究能力,本系安排每週三下午地理學專題演講,促進學術討論氛圍與研究風氣。

本系研究風氣鼎盛,為了鼓勵研究活動,提高地理學術水準,每年均彙編出版各種期刊及叢書,目前已出版「地理學研究」、「地理研究」、「地理研究叢書」、「系友會刊」、「地友」、「地理教育」、「地理教育叢書」、「地理研究專刊」。此外,本系教師更廣泛獲得國科會、教育部、臺電公司、水資會、臺灣省民政廳、文獻委員會等單位的補助或委託,從事多項專門性的學術專題研究,成果豐碩。

本系學術活動頻繁,自1997年起每年舉辦「臺灣地理學術研討會」。另外,教師除參加國內外學術會議外,為更進一步促進師生的研究風氣,並加強大家的研究能力,本系自七十七學年度時,將碩士班的地理論著評讀、博士班的地理學專題討論及老師的學術研討會集中於每週三下午舉行。有關師生將輪流評讀論文或報告研究心得,並作公開討論和意見交流。內容方面,碩一同學以評讀外文地理論著為主,題目自選或由指導教授決定;碩二同學以匯報個人碩士論文進度為主;博士班同學及本系老師,則自行決定內容。

    臺灣北部地區主要瀑布群的地形學研究
    (國立臺灣師範大學地理學系, 1989-03-01) 沈淑敏
    The purpose of this research is to distinguish the factors which influence the form of water苯alls. The defination of a waterfall in the study is of which the height is higher than 5m and will not dry around the year. The form discussed here includes five parts, the face of waterfall (the ratio of width and length), the inclination of fall wall, the existence of plunge pool, the appearance of cap rock, and the relationship between the dip of strata bed and river orientation. The study area includes four waterfall groups in the northern Taiwan, named Pinhsi, Tatun. Wulai and Chiaohsi group. The geological setting are quite different among four groups. There are 40 waterfalls investigated totally, 12 in Pinhsi group, 8 in Tatun group, 11 in Wulai group and 9 in Chiaohsi group, respectively. After classifying each kind of forms and factors of 40 waterfalls, I analyze the relationship between each kind of forms and factors with methods of contingency table and X2 test. The conclusions are as follows: 1. Waterfalls mostly are splender type according to the face form, inclined type to the wall form, horizontal type and reverse type to the bed form. However, there isn't a special type obviously on the form of plunge pool and of cap rock. 2. For waterfall belongs to the small scale landform, the form of it is controlled mainly by the factors of lithology.

    地理學方法論中的非實證論傳統
    (國立臺灣師範大學地理學系, 1987-03-01) 潘朝陽
    Traditionally, geography has always been regarded as a branch of the so-called “positive science”, and as such geography is held to abide by such rigorous scientific inference procedures as hypothesis, collection; evaluation; and analysis of data; verification, establishment of model, and consequently forecasting based on conclusion. Geography derived accordingly is referred to as ‘scientific geography’, the philosophy underlying known as ‘positivism’. The progress of natural sciences which has been advancing vehemently in our times has considerable impacts on the philosophy, since the 19th century positivism has become an emerging trend for methodology, calling for the application of natural sciencse, mathematical and physical models to the study of social phenomena with a view to find out universal law accountable for all that is seen and that which prevails in the cultural and social phenomena everywhere worlwide. Way back following World War II, especially during the 60's and the 70’s, Geography for study has been deeply influenced by theories like positivism and logical positivism, a lot of spatial scientifically oriented theses on the subject of geography came up one after the other, with strong backgrounds of math and physics, especially geometrical spirits, as reflected in the points, segments of line, and surfaces characterising geographical settings. As a matter of fact, there is an ab-positivism philosophy which has been prevailing and outstanding enough in the tradition of the evolution of history, be it ‘Romanticism", “Neo-Kantianism”, “Historicism”, they altogether run contrary to “Naturalism”, “Materialism”, “Empiricism”, and even “Positivism”, any that which favors “Mechanism”, they opposed researching, handling of cultural and social issues by means of natural science in one way or another, but instead they advocated “cultural historical sciences”, with stresses given to humanitarian value, individual meaningfulness, and as such they can hardly agree with the pursuit of the so-called “universal law”, they proposed instead that the target set for humanitarian and sociological subjects should be to uphold the meaing of “human being”. In as early as days when Ritter became prominent, for geography a branch of study, methodology, unrelated to positivism, has been established, in particular a series of geographic thoughts including those propounded by Schlüter-Carl Sauer, Paul Vidal de la Blache, Hettner-Hartshorne, were aimed at illustrating the meaning of “Regional Uniqueness” through interpretative expression the philosophy behind all these is obviously other than positivistic in nature. In short, their philosophy openly and unanimously oppose the pursuit of a universal Jaw as the goal for geography, and prefer to interprete the meaning of Regional uniqueness by means of the structure and evolution of the heritage of the culture and historical contexts. The philosophical influence of Neo-Kantianism, Historicism, and even Ro­manticism call be found by means of their methodology.

    儒家哲學的環境思想
    (國立臺灣師範大學地理學系, 1988-03-01) 潘朝陽
    This thesis quotes six important confucian ancient classics: “LUN-YU” [論語], “MON­TSU” [孟子], “HSUN-TSU” [荀子], “SHU-CHING"[書經], “YI-CHING” [易經] and “CHUNG-YUNG”[中庸] to interpret the environmental thought of confucianism. Through the explanation of these classics, we have reached the following conclusions: 1. The Confucian's realization to the environment is neither meditation (mystic thought) or religious reflection nor the science which is to pursue “Logos” and “Pure Form”, it is the interpretation of “Human World” after reasonable and empirical observation on the Great Nature with a view to “Govern the World”. 2. Fundamentally, the Confucians regard the natural environment as a “environment of vitality”, in essence, it holds and possesses the function of “multiplying endlessly and moving continuously to and fro” and this function is perpetual, ever-lasting, enormous and infinite. 3. Two divinations, “CHIEN” [乾] & “KUN” [坤], of “YI-CHING” [易經] and the conception of “CHENG” [誠] of “CHUNG YUNG” [中庸] is exactly the ontological basis of the Confucian's recognition to the natural environment-“SHENG SHENG CHIH TE” [生生之德] (multiplying endlessly). Confucians hold the Great Nature internally and superiorly has its creative and developmental innate source of energy, i.e., “CHIEN YUAN” [乾元], “KUNYUAN" [坤元] or synthesized as “CHENG” [誠] or concluded to be one – “TIEN TAU” [天道] (Heaven). Since “TIEN TAU” may develop by itself, there shows out the vital and energetic Great Nature Environment-multiplying endlessly and moving continuously to and fro. 4. Facing this environment of spring vitality, Confucians particularly treat it in the manner of “Cosmic order” and “Moral Order” established by “Moral Metaphysics”, pursuant to this, there are “JEN” [仁] (or “CHENG”), i.e., “Moral Reason” or”Moral Humanism” to lead to the thought of “joining and helping the creative life of Great Nature”, from which the great Confucians, Mon-tsu & Hsu-tsu, construct their theory of “WANG TAU” [王道] – “Going into the woods in the right time”, then the people will get the sufficient food, a ap-pliances and wood materials, and thereof there will be no regret for being alive or died.

    觀念論地理學
    (國立臺灣師範大學地理學系, 1989-03-01) 潘朝陽
    As a important branch of Humanistic Geography, Idealist Geography focuses on the interpretation of human's thought within the geographical phenomena and the understanding of the context of culture-history, and through this way to indicate the meaning and value of geographical phenomena. Idealist Geographer must have sufficient cultural-historical and thoughtful-minded cultivation, because only through them, he or she then has a more deep and thorough under-standing for the regions and geographical phenomena he or she approaches, and only through them, he or she is then able to give humanistic criticism and attention to the nature of approach subjects, and this kind of criticism and attention is just the most fundamental spirit should be possessed by all the idealist geographers and humanistic geographers. This article enumerates three idealist masters, W. Windelband, H. Rickert and R.G. Colling-wood, and construes their ideas that study for human world shall set out from the understand-ing of culture-history and thought-mind. Further, the author touches on Paul Vidal de la Blache's "Genre de vie" to indicate the spirit of idealist has sufficed in the tradition of geography and needed not to take from outside, since the methodology of Genre de vie is through the understanding for one region's culture虐istory, thought-mind to grasp the uniqueness of the region. Besides, the author also analyzes and points out two Taiwan's geographers' essays in order to indicate the methodology of idealist geography, more or less, has been practically approaches. If examining carefully, we somewhat also can find the contents of idealist geography existed in other geographers' articles.
