The forthcoming 2th congress of the EUGEO, which will be held in Bratislava in this year is very good opportunity to reflect the history and the present stay of the geographic education and research at the University of Prešov. Thereat we have an ambition to present a brief profile of the Prešov´s geographical community with emphasis on its institutional development, legislative position, and problems of geographical research and education. Key words: geographical institutions, geography, geographical education, geographical research, Prešov, University of Prešov. INTRODUCTION tradition of geographic education at the university level in Prešov has traced as far back to 1667, when the first lectures from geography were introduced at the evangelic college by Michal Pancratius. In the following period there were many famous people in the roles of students and professors that participated in the field of geographic research, education and propagation. the most famous students studying at the college were e.g. Ján Adam Rayman, Ján Matej Korabinský, Pavol Rebery, Samuel Augustíni ab Hortis, Ján Hunfalvy, Ján Pettko, Jozef Jekelfalussy, Alfréd Grósz a Juraj Janoška. From the college professors we can mention Fridrich Hazslinszký, Ján csinka, Jozef Koreň, Ladislav Urbánek and Mirko trnovský. In the 19th century some geographically oriented figures acted also at the Roman catholic royal grammar school. one of the famous and very active people in publishing was Jan Nepomuk Woldřich. In 1918 the evangelic college lost its character of university and in 1945 the last institute of Prešov college – the college grammar school – was closed, too. However, in the second half of 20th century some new educational institutions were established. they continued in rich traditions of Prešov education and they brought the development of university geographic education and research in eastern Slovakia. 1 Prof. RNDr. René Matlovič, PhD., prof.

In 1949 Faculty of education of Slovak University in Košice started to continue in their activities, establishing the Institute of Geography. It became the first Slovak academic place situated outside bratislava. In 1952 the institution moved to Prešov. the Institute of Geography was the part of department of natural sciences that merged also the institutions of botany, zoology, chemistry and geology. one year later an organizational reform of teachers` education took place in Slovakia. on the basis of one of the pedagogic faculty branches, the Higher pedagogic school for teachers from 6th to 8th grades of elementary schools was established in Prešov. In 1954 first 20 teachers of geography left the school.t hey continued in spatial and personal development of the institute, which was located in the building of former evangelic college grammar school situated at Námestie legionárov (Legionar square). In 1959 the system of academic preparation of teachers was reorganized again. New pedagogic institutes were formed in Prešov and Košice. year 1961 was an important milestone in institutional development of the department. the Institute of Geography was detached from the department of Natural environment, declaring an autonomous department of geography. In 1964 education Institute in Prešov changed to Faculty of education, which was incorporated into University of Pavol Jozef Šafárik (UPJŠ) located in Košice as its fourth faculty. the tuition of Geography as a field of study then moved to the university level increasing prestige and quality of the department and its academicians. At that time there were 8 pedagogic- research workers employed at the department. on
