The Faculty of Geography, University of Belgrade, Serbia has developed dynamically throughout all its phases, with its share of ups and downs. The ups were related to the peacetime living and working circumstances and the downs to the wartime years. The Second World War was followed by staffing and financial consolidation of this institution which evidently led to rapid development of scientific geography in terms of theory, methodology, personnel and organisation, as well as in the application of its results in various areas of social practice. New departments were formed in undergraduate and postgraduate studies: Tourism, Spatial Planning, Demography and Environment.

The studies of geography have been continuously improved by studying new educational and scientific disciplines, using the most advanced methods in scientific research and teaching, as well as in terms of organization, personnel and all other possible ways.
