History

Kyūshūkōdai-mae Station opened on 1 July 1970 as Shin-Nakabaru Station, an added intermediate stop on the existing Kagoshima Main Line track in Tobata Ward, Kitakyushu. Control passed to JR Kyushu at the 1 April 1987 privatisation. The station was renamed Kyūshūkōdai-mae on 1 November 1990, taking the name from the Kyushu Institute of Technology located about 500 m to the south. The Midori no Madoguchi opened in March 1993, automatic ticket gates in May 2000, and SUGOCA acceptance on 1 March 2009. The Midori no Madoguchi closed on 11 March 2022. On 1 October 2023 the station reverted from being operated under contract by JR Kyushu Service Support to being a JR Kyushu direct-operation station. Station number JA26.

Notes

An older facility on the same alignment, the Kami-Tobata Signal Station, served the Tōyō Iron Works (now Nippon Steel Yahata) and Kyushu Electric Power's Shin-Kokura plant from 1919 until it was abolished on 10 February 1984.
