We develop a finite element method for solving the Dirichlet problem of the one- dimensional prescribed curvature equation due to its irreplaceable role in applications. Specifically, we first analyze the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the problem and then develop a finite element method to solve it. The well-posedness of the finite element method is shown by employing the Banach fixed-point theorem. The optimal error estimates of the proposed method in both the $H^1$ norm and the $L^2$ norm are established. We also design a Newton type iteration scheme to solve the resulting discrete nonlinear system. Numerical experiments are presented to confirm the order of convergence of the proposed method.
