Today education takes the priority in the 21st century national development strategies, while achieving gender equality is one of the duties of education. Over the past decades of China's reforming and opening up, Chinese women's higher education has made great progress. Especially over the past 10 years females have more chances to accept higher education. The gap between the number of boys and girls in colleges has been narrowing. It can be said that it is the best period for women's higher education in the millennium history of education in china. Women's higher education in china has made great achievements attracting worldwide education. But as the changes of sex ratio in college, the problem of gender education has become increasingly prominent. There are sex conflicts, discrimination in students' study and employment.
