Women university students have prospects of some life courses, arid this paper attempts to clarify them by introducing new and original framework. Previous studies of 'Gender and Education' used to analyze women with higher education in terms of the two divided aspects "marriage or job". But there remains two problems in this framework. The first is that it fails to grasp prospects of some life courses of women university students, and the second is that once women university students are categorized into "marriage or job", their value judgement is fixedly dealt with as so. To avoid these problems, I designed the original questionnaire and analyzed the whole prospects of life course of "marriage and job" in their own mind. The main findings are as follows: 1) In the previous way, there is coincidence of prospects of life course among those who want to retire for a time and permanently, when they get married and birth children. But, by the new framework introducing in this study, the former prospects of life course is similar to those who want to keep working until the retirement age. 2) In the previous studies, those who want to keep working are regarded as they are not interested in the marriage and birth children, but in the work. But by the new framework, there are also those who want to get the success of "marriage and job".
