Edith Cowan University (ECU) provides the ideal learning environment for people who want to reach their potential.

Located in Western Australia, our industry-relevant teaching and research, supportive study environment and award-winning facilities enable ECU students to do more than just survive in this world – they thrive in it.

Established in 1991, ECU took the opportunity to reshape the way higher education is delivered in a distinctive and inspiring campus environment.

ECU courses are developed in consultation with industry, and teaching staff have extensive industry experience and networks. It’s why ECU students can expect placement opportunities, fieldwork, practicums and networking events as part of their studies.

This approach has been rewarded with five-star ratings for teaching quality over the past 14 years, along with consistently high ratings for overall education experience and skills development, as reported in the Good Universities Guide.

ECU’s world-class research strives to make a difference both locally and globally. ECU focuses on working with our communities, business and government organisations to solve real-world problems.

The university was named after Edith Dirksey Cowan, the first woman to be elected to an Australian Parliament. Her life was dedicated to the belief that education was the key to growth, change and improvement in society.

Her example informs ECU’s values as we pride ourselves on developing capable graduates who lead engaged and productive lives in the communities in which they live and work.

At a glance
ECU has more than 30,000 undergraduate and postgraduate students, including international students from more than 100 countries.

Our eight Schools collectively deliver more than 250 diverse courses across medical and health sciences, engineering, education, arts and humanities, business and law, nursing and midwifery, science and the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts.

Courses are offered across three campuses – Joondalup and Mount Lawley in metropolitan Perth and the South West Campus at Bunbury, 200km south of the capital city. ECU also offers a comprehensive suite of online study options.
