History
Queen Elizabeth College, so called from 1953, succeeded the Home Science and Economics classes of King's College Women's Department and King's College for Women, which started in 1908; the Household and Social Science Department of King's College for Women, which opened in 1915; and King's College of Household and Social Science, which operated from 1928. A Vice-Principal headed King's College Women's Department; a Warden led King's College for Women, the Department of Household and Social Science and, until 1945, King's College of Household and Social Science. After 1945 the head was known as the Principal. The amalgamation of Queen Elizabeth College with King's College London and Chelsea College was completed in 1985.
