According to one embodiment, a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes a step of grinding to thin a first semiconductor wafer on which a semiconductor device is formed in a state in which a surface of a second semiconductor wafer is fixed on a chuck table of a grinding device after bonding the first semiconductor wafer to the second semiconductor wafer. The method includes a step of fixing a surface of the first semiconductor wafer on the chuck table and grinding the surface of the second semiconductor wafer in a state in which the first semiconductor wafer is bonded to the second semiconductor wafer prior to the grinding step to thin the first semiconductor wafer.
