In this paper, we give the definition of harmonic curvature function some special curves such as helix, slant curves, Mannheim curves and Bertrand curves. Then, we recall the characterizations of helices [8], slant curves (see [19]) and Mannheim curves (see [12]) in three dimensional Lie groups using their harmonic curvature function.Moreover, we define Bertrand curves in a three dimensional Lie group G with a bi-invariant metric and the main result in this paper is given as (Theorem 3.4): A curve α : I ⊂ R →G with the Frenet apparatus {T, N, B, κ, τ } is a Bertrand curve if and only if λκ + µκH = 1 where λ, µ are constants and H is the harmonic curvature function of the curve α.
