Recently, the curriculum of universities has required not only to pursue academic truth but also to be socially practical with neoliberalism. This study compared and analyzed the undergraduate curriculum of geography departments in European universities according to social change, focusing on French, German, and UK universities. The curriculum of European universities is evolving in two directions to meet social needs. First of all, European universities are implementing policies to unify university academic systems and earned credit systems in accordance with the EU's social integration policy. And the curriculum of the geography departments of each country is diversifying, being practical, and specializing to meet social needs. Despite the policy of unifying the academic systems of European universities, the curriculum of the geography of each country differs due to the historical background of the development of geography.
