Out of all the universities in Australia, ECU was my
first choice.
I was attracted to Perth’s relaxed lifestyle and ECU
offered the right combination of flexible class times
and academic support, as well as access to the latest
technology. Being able to log onto ECU ’s wireless
network means I am able to access library books and
resources while enjoying the outdoors.
ECU offers students a complete package ranging
from free classes that teach you how to reference
correctly, to free services that help you apply for
your dream job.
