EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION
Edith Cowan University (ECU) is a large, multi-campus institution serving communities in Western Australia and internationally.ECU was awarded university status in 1991, but despite its relative youth, the University has a proud history of more than a century of service to education in Western Australia and is recognised for its teaching and learning, excellence in research, and partnerships with the community.We have more than 23,300 students, including around 18,500 undergraduates and 4,800 postgraduates. Approximately 3,600 international students attend the University, originating from 104 countries.We are a progressive University with courses developed through ongoing industry input, and employing lecturers who engage fully with their students. We’re a university that knows while knowledge is important, understanding comes from experience –experience that enables you to adapt what you’ve learned to whatever opportunities come your way. Because that’s when you do more than just survive in this world. You thrive in it.
