"Texas Woman's University" Information


Texas Woman's University
Texas Woman's University (historically the Girls Industrial College and Texas State College for Women) is a university with campuses in Denton, Dallas and Houston, Texas (USA). Originally a women's college, it opened some health science programs to male students in 1972, and in 1994 opened all of its programs to co-ed enrollment. It is the largest state-supported university for women in the United States.

In 1901 the Girls Industrial College was founded by an act passed by the State of Texas 27th Legislature. The year 1934 saw the name of the school changed to Texas State College for Women. In 1957 the school's name was changed to Texas Woman's University.

TWU is unique among Texas institutions of higher education. This university's core curriculum requires all undergraduates to take both three hours in women's studies and three hours in multicultural studies. The Office of Intercultural Services is a very important resource for the entire TWU campus community.

The nursing program began at Dallas's Parkland Hospital. In 1963 a branch of the school was established for the training of nursing students at the Texas Medical Center. Today, TWU is internationally known for its health sciences programs. Admission to these programs is highly competitive. A new Houston campus has opened.
