† 2024 MAC tournament winner

The 2023–24 Central Michigan Chippewas women's basketball team represented Central Michigan University during the 2023–24 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Chippewas, led by first-year head coach Kristin Haynie, played their home games at McGuirk Arena in Mount Pleasant, Michigan as members of the Mid-American Conference (MAC).

Previous season

The Chippewas finished the 2022–23 season 6–23, 4–14 in MAC play, to finish in a tie for eleventh (last) place. They failed to qualify for the MAC tournament, as only the top eight teams qualify.

On April 6, 2023, the school announced a "change of leadership", and that head coach Heather Oesterle would not be returning as head coach, ending her four-year tenure with the team. On April 20, a month after being hired as an assistant coach for the Minnesota Lynx, former Michigan State assistant coach Kristin Haynie was named the team's new head coach.
