Before the 1980s, an MTR station by the name of Whitty (屈地) was planned to be built underground at Des Voeux Road West, near Ka On Street, Whitty Street and Hill Road. Lots at Chong Yip Centre, Pacific Plaza, Kwan Tick Building Phase Two and Hang Yue Building were reserved for future station exits at the four corners of an underground concourse. This was part of a planned extension of the Island line that was never built, but which was superseded by the West Island line project, of which HKU station forms a part. The MTR Corporation let out a tender for the construction of the and HKU stations and of tunnel. In 2009, the design and architecture was awarded to Aedas in joint venture with AECOM. The construction work was awarded to Gammon Construction, (half owned by Balfour Beatty) for HK$4.7 billion. Construction commenced in 2010 and was completed in 2014. HKU station opened on 28 December 2014.

There were disputes among locals and district councillors over the station's name. Some suggested to restore the previous official name "Belcher" (寶翠, , cy=bóu chui, j=bou2 ceoi3) after The Belcher's (the Belcher Gardens before redevelopment), a housing development in the area, as well as Belcher Street and Belcher Bay. Some believed that the MTR Corporation's decision to change the name to "University" was not well consulted within the community, while others worried that it might cause confusion with another existing on the Some also suggested "Shek Tong Tsui", after the area the station would serve. In August 2009, MTR named the station "Hong Kong University". The latest revision changed the English name to "HKU", the abbreviation of The University of Hong Kong nearby.
