Texas Woman’s University (TWU) is a public university that offers a
comprehensive catalog of academic studies, including baccalaureate,
master’s, and doctoral degrees. Founded as the Girls Industrial
College in 1901 by an act of the 27th Legislature, the institution
became Texas Woman’s University in 1957 and began admitting men in
1972. Today, the institution has grown from a small college to a
major university. As the nation’s largest university system
focused on women, Texas Woman’s University offers more than 60
degree programs in the liberal arts and sciences, nursing, health
sciences, business, and education. Texas Woman’s is a proud member
of the Women’s College Coalition, whose mission is to transform the
world through the education and success of women and girls.
The university’s main campus consists of 270 acres in Denton,
Texas, with additional health science focused campuses in Dallas
and Houston. The three are joined by an e-learning campus offering
innovative online degree programs. TWU’s student population has
nearly doubled in recent decades, with more than 16,000 students
currently enrolled—89% of which are women. TWU offers students the
opportunity to learn from, and work with, faculty members who
pursue leading research in their fields. With an 18-1 student to
faculty ratio, there is plenty of one-on-one time with instructors
to expand understanding. Students can extend their learning beyond
the classroom at TWU with more than 125 student organizations and
five sports that compete in NCAA Division II competition—including
the national championship winning gymnastics team.
Opportunities for staying connected to TWU are plentiful for the
more than 100,000 living alumni. TWU alumni can tap into the

classmates, mentor current students, and expand career connections.

opportunities to connect both virtually and in person.
