In 1895, as a result of the ministerial decree by Gyula Wlassics, it became possible for universities to open their doors to women at the Faculties of Humanities, Medicine and Pharmacology in Hungary. However, it should be kept in mind that in the 19th century the natural duty of women was to be a mother and a wife. Hence it is understandable that this was the reason why it took many years to issue Wlassics’s decree that allowed the education of women at the universities and colleges as well. This study aims to give a short insight into the opinions about women’s higher education which were published in the studies, monographs and journals at the end of the 19th and at the beginning of 20th century in Hungary.
