Research Abstract	This study explores the developmental process and historical features of university education for women which was established in the postwar new school system, by approaching from the perspective of coeducational system. Finally, this study suggested most of the universities, which were founded based on the School Education Act, took the coeducation of men and women for granted because the entrance qualification of men and women became equal in the Constitution and the School Education Act. On the other hand, although women's universities partially included a side of characteristic education, there was an intention for them to educate the women suitable for democratic society.
