PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for graphitizing a carbon material, capable of effectively and stably conducting graphitization, even when a carbon fiber and a carbon fiber woven fabric are heated at 3000 deg.C or higher, and to provide a graphitizing apparatus structured to have a small-scale mechanism, scarcely requiring work loads nor maintenance loads, and having a long duration of its life. SOLUTION: This method for graphitizing the carbon material comprises heating the carbon fiber and/or the carbon fiber woven fabric with a high density energy beam, wherein the carbon fiber and/or the carbon fiber woven fabric are heated with the high density energy beam through a protecting tube. The apparatus for graphitizing the carbon material is an apparatus for continuously heating the carbon fiber and/or the carbon fiber woven fabric, wherein the apparatus has a high density energy beam irradiation unit, a conveying unit for conveying the carbon fiber and/or the carbon fiber woven fabric, and the protecting tube for protecting the carbon fiber and/or the carbon fiber woven fabric from the high density energy beam.
