Ewha Womans University

About

Ewha Woman's University is a private institute for women in Seoul. Mary F. Scranton created this institute in 1886 under the emperor Gojong. It was the first university established in South Korea. Presently, it is the largest female educational institution in the world and one of the most prestigious institutions in South Korea.

The root of Ewha Womans University is traced back to Mary F. Scranton's Ewha Haktang girls' school, which was opened with only one student in 1886. The meaning of Ewha is "Pear Blossom," which was conferred by the emperor Gojong. The pear blossom image is incorporated into the logo of the school.

This institute stands at crucial turning point and facing new challenges. Ewha Womans University is determined to turn the new challenges into new opportunities that will open the door to new and exciting changes, to build an institute that is furnished and equipped for world-class research and education. The university takes its first step as an international hub for women's education.
