Abstract
For a long time, education, especially at higher levels, was a privilege reserved for men, along with many other male considered activities: work, production and public life. And when women received any education, it was generally focused on the development of what was considered her social role: carrying out the household tasks and serving men. It was only at the end of the XIXth century that some women had access to the education reserved for men, and it was not until the middle of the last century that coeducation was regarded as something normal. Today however, the question as to whether coeducation is the best idea has arisen. Not because women are deemed inferior, as in the past, but because of the consideration of the advantages or disadvantages of an education which takes into account the real differences between men and women, and the ways each capabilities, which in the past were considered limitations, may be boosted. This article briefly reviews the role of women in the history of education, and explains the reasons why, today, the debate on the desirability of a University for women is reopened.
