The school began on December 20, 1974, as Hanyang Women's Vocational School, on the campus of Hanyang University by the school corporation Hanyang Academy.[1] The school was upgraded to the status of Junior College, thus renamed as Hanyang Women's Junior College in December 1978. In March 1979, it moved from the Hanyang University campus to its current location. The college was renamed as Hanyang Women's College in 1998. In 2012 it attained university status, thus renamed as Hanyang Women's University.
