Abstract The online version of Dissertation Abstracts International (DAI) was examined to determine the extent of PhD and Master's level research in tourism geography. Five subject headings - tourism, tourist, travel, traveller and ecotourism - were searched and entries with 'geography' as the key descriptor extracted. These entries were further evaluated as to their emphasis upon tourism prior to their final listing. A total of 66 PhD dissertations and 22 Master's theses were recorded for the 1951-98 period. The 1990s was the most productive period of graduate-level research in tourism geography, and several universities - mostly in Canada - were the leaders in awarding Master's and PhD degrees to specialists in tourism geography.
