From established disciplines such as teaching, nursing, law, engineering and business, to new and emerging courses such as marine and freshwater biology, engineering science, networking and security science, ECU will give you the practical skills and knowledge upon which to build a rewarding career. Much of our academic work is aimed at social and economic relevance to the communities we serve. Importantly, we strive to model our approach to scholarship in our everyday practices. In line with this approach, our “Sustainable Communities” policy which encompasses environmental and social sustainability has resulted in a reduction in the University’s carbon footprint and our energy and water consumption, and, an increase in health and wellness initiatives. This includes moving towards each of our campuses being smoke-free. I hope you will join us at ECU on a journey from which you will benefit. Professor Kerry O. Cox Vice-Chancellor and President
The road is open. Life is full of journeys. Childhood to adulthood; school to university; working to working better, and learning more. All these journeys require a clear path to help make sure the journey goes in the direction we want it to go. So when we say the road is open at ECU, we are reflecting our commitment to ensuring the obstacles and barriers that sometimes get in the way can be effectively managed and overcome. It’s how ECU thinks and why we do things differently. Everyone’s journey is unique, reflecting personal hopes and aspirations. But the road is open at ECU to help you realise your ambitions and reach your destination, wherever that may be.

Who was Edith Cowan? Born in 1861 in Western Australia (WA), Edith Dircksey Cowan believed education was the key to growth, change and improvement. Edith’s contribution to the development of Western Australian education was significant. She strove to achieve social justice and campaigned for the rights of women, children and families, for the poor, the poorly educated and the elderly. So it’s fitting that the oldest education institution and newest state university, Edith Cowan University, bears her name.
10 Reasons to Choose ECU At Edith Cowan University (ECU), our approach to learning is based on the needs of our students and what employers say they are really looking for in graduates.

Graduate Certificates are comprised of four units and are available in a number of study areas. These programs can be completed in as little as six months of full-time study and you may not need an undergraduate degree to apply – real life experience may be adequate. Once completed, a Graduate Certificate may be used to progress into Graduate Diploma or Master Degrees.
Graduate Diploma: Graduate Diplomas are comprised of eight units and are available to students who have already completed a Bachelor Degree in any discipline and who now wish to complete the equivalent of a major study in another discipline without doing a second undergraduate degree. Graduate Diplomas consist of units in a particular discipline and generally take one year of full-time study.
Master by Coursework: A Master by Coursework program is designed for students who wish to undertake major studies and obtain relevant knowledge and skills in an area that is different to their first degree. For example, you may have completed an undergraduate science degree and now would like to undertake a Master of Business Administration.
Professional Doctorate: A Professional Doctorate typically involves both coursework and research over three years full-time study. This program is designed for professionals to develop an in-depth understanding of the latest thinking and technologies within their disciplines.
Research What is a research degree? A research degree will normally involve the production of a written body of researched work, known as a thesis. The research is developed over a period of time and involves identifying a topic, developing a proposal, conducting the research and producing a thesis. Research study may lead to employment within academia, research and development, or as a specialist in industry.
“The experience I have received at ECU has added value to my personal life which I will take with me wherever I go.” Aodong Mei ECU Finance student
In disciplines with a creative component, the study may produce a creative work, such as a performance or literary work, plus an exegesis to accompany and reflect on the creative element.
Master by Research A Master by Research typically involves one year of coursework or research skills development units followed by a year-long project which results in the submission of a written work, such as a thesis. Master by Research Degrees at ECU may be one or two years full-time ,depending on the discipline.
Doctor of Philosophy The Doctor of Philosophy is a research degree involving a three year full-time research program which results in the submission of a thesis or creative work with an exegesis.

“ECU’s MBA helped me to critically reflect on work place experiences and create practical business solutions” To stay competitive in business, I wanted to re-fresh my knowledge about leadership and management, but it was important that I be able to continue working full-time. ECU’s combination of online research facilities, supportive lecturers and evening classes made ECU’s MBA an easy choice for me. Each unit has encouraged me to critically evaluate theory and their future applications to ‘real’ workplace environments. The confidence I’ve gained from my ECU MBA has led to one of my greatest achievements so far - running a workshop at the 2009 Government Contact Centre Summit in Sydney.”
Anna Thisainayajan ECU Business student

Jo graduated from ECU with a Post Graduate Diploma in Psychology in 2009. She is a professional executive coach and has coached over 1,000 executives in Australia and South‑East Asia.
At the Forefront of Business and Technology Our Master of Business and Technology bridges the business and technology gap, which means the successful integration of technology into business. Roy Wallace, from The Birchman Group, observes “ECU’s Master of Business and Technology course provides an excellent grounding for developing the necessary alignment between Business and IT. While it is extremely important for organisations to know which projects to execute, it is becoming even more important in the current economic environment to make sure the projects are successfully delivered and produce the benefits stated in the business case. A key constraint that is becoming more and more visible is the need for alignment between Business and IT.”

The understanding and integration of either business or technology is critical to business success in today’s rapidly changing environment. Effective technology usage can underpin every step of the value chain, from concept development and strategic positioning to delivering customer value. Enterprise use of software packages rather than own software development is becoming increasingly pervasive.
I61 - JO
Introduces you to the academic study of event management and develops your skills, knowledge and experiences in relation to the marketing and/or public relations and communications strategies relevant for event managers. You will also develop conceptual and practical competencies in the area of event operations management. Explores the management of various event forms, as well as providing an insight into the other key business functions involved in event management such as financial and management accounting, the management of organisations, and project management. Provides you with the opportunity to further specialise in various fields (such as marketing, human resource management, sport management, project management, integrated marketing communications and leadership) to give your studies a stronger industry focus in that area. The phenomenon of events in society, such as the cultural, economic and political impacts and meanings of a range of events, alongside motives and benefits for event consumers are also considered.
This relatively new approach to Information Technology (IT) usage requires a greater understanding of the business as in most cases the business changes to accommodate the package rather than vice versa. The IT specialist increasingly needs a good understanding of the business as well as the information technology.

The fact that my course is internationally recognised is a big bonus too – and literally opens up a whole world of career possibilities.”

“ECU’s Law degree bridges the gap between theory and practice.” “Practical skills are incorporated into the course from the very start. In my first year I was conducting mediations and negotiations and by my third year I was interviewing clients, under supervision, at the on-campus Joondalup Community Legal Centre.“
Katie McKenzie ECU Law graduate
Law & Justice ECU’s Law and Justice courses cover a broad range of contemporary issues such as the psychology of criminal behaviour, family law and forensic investigation. The focus of ECU Law and Justice courses is to provide practical legal education with a commitment to social justice. The vision is to lead in law and justice, education and research, while developing leaders in communities. In 2009, we introduced a number of new units across various programs in an effort to improve our courses and to give our students a competitive advantage. Such units included ‘Occupational Health, Safety and Security Law in Australia’, which was delivered by one of Australia’s leading experts in this area. Law and Justice lecturers create challenging classroom environments and bring both excellent academic qualifications and industry experience to each class. Many are involved in research and have developed close relationships with various professional associations and agencies including the Law Society of Western Australia, the Western Australian Dispute Resolution Association (WADRA), Landgate, the Law Council of Australia, and more.

“Choosing Nursing was easy. So was finding the right uni.” “To my mind, two key resources separate ECU’s Nursing qualification from other institutions. First, at Joondalup Campus, the new hospital simulation wards really do help turn theory into practice. And second, the ECU lecturers provide such a supportive learning environment, they are an equally amazing resource in themselves.”
Rushton Hunt ECU Nursing student
Nursing & paramedicine State-of-the-Art Nursing Facilities The brand new purpose-built Health and Wellness Building offers a variety of state-of-the-art simulated nursing and health care facilities, including six clinical practice wards and a unique simulation theatre, giving students a hands-on approach to real scenarios in hospitals.

teacher education ECU graduates teachers who are ready to make a difference to the lives of young people and take on a classroom of their own. Experienced and engaging lecturers who are passionate about education, excellent facilities and programs that are informed by cutting-edge research support students to realise their career goals and make them outstanding teachers. The Most Renowned Teaching Program in the State ECU has been at the forefront of teacher education for over 100 years and is the largest School of Education in Western Australia
Professional Practice is Important to You, So it’s Important to Us ECU teaching students receive real hands-on experience in schools from as early as first term for many courses. ECU has strong and established partnerships with over 500 schools, ensuring our students are offered a range of professional practice experiences throughout the course. Professional practice experiences, residency school placements, internships, and practical activities undertaken in partnership with schools ensure teaching students make the essential connection between theory and practice.
ECU and Roseworth Primary School Working to Improve Teaching and Learning Roseworth Primary School and ECU will share a research classroom and observation room facility which will be incorporated in the soon to be completed new Roseworth Primary School. The facility will enable teaching students and current teachers to observe and research a wide range of teaching methods and behaviour management techniques without imposing on classrooms. The new facility will enable ECU students and staff to see first hand current educational issues in situ which will help “close the gap” between theory and practice. The partnership will provide ECU with information and experience that is grounded in reality.

urban & regional Planning Where we live has a real impact on our health and lifestyle. If you want to help create communities that people love to live in, consider a career in Planning. Planners forecast the future needs of communities and promote the best use of residential, commercial, and recreational resources. The Centre for Planning’s teaching philosophy has a strong practical orientation and embraces generic practical skills, such as public speaking, critical thinking, and group work. The balance of theory and hands-on experience will open doors to a wide range of career choices as Professional Planners and within specialised areas of Planning, in government, and private industry. The Bachelor of Planning is accredited by the Planning Institute of Australia (PIA) which means you will acquire the right skills and knowledge, with the right balance of theory and practice to be job-ready. Mat Selby, former President of the PIA WA Division observes, “The ECU Planning courses have a different focus. They bring elements of business and law, setting the courses apart and allowing graduates a different focus on what planners can get into. They fill gaps that other courses have.”
Designed in Consultation with Industry Professionals ECU Planning courses have been designed in consultation with representatives from the Planning profession, government, industry, and the community. Director General of the Department of Planning, Eric Lumsden, explains, “ECU has taken a good solid approach to planning. The holistic integrated approach of the course structure means students are well prepared for a dynamic and proactive planning career.”
Our Communities Need Planners Despite huge demand and large salaries, employers are still having difficulty recruiting planners. This means students are able to line up jobs well before they have finished their final exams. Judith Harley, Manager Research and Policy from the Urban Development Institute of Australia (WA) confirms, “There is currently a dire shortage of skilled planners. ECU Planning courses have a fantastic approach and are closely linked to industry, resulting in good practical outcomes for students.”
“I plan to get ahead. That’s why I’m studying Planning at ECU.” “The staff here are fantastic; they’re really helpful and supportive. I love the diverse range of subjects we’ve studied so far, ranging from Business Studies and Geography, to Ecology and Community Work.”

Field of Research „„ Performing Arts
Provides an opportunity for original, highly accomplished practitioners, performers and artists who aspire towards a more extensive research and creative profile. Although this is a discrete program relating to the performing arts, opportunities will exist for cross-disciplinary study through joint supervision of the research. You will be expected to research, devise, and produce substantial new works of art, and/or develop new approaches to arts practice. They will also be expected to provide an appropriate record of their research through a written thesis based on their research activities, the artistic ideas, and the exploratory processes. Through the thesis, you will be encouraged to develop models of practical and theoretical enquiry appropriate to the arts profession, based on a broad understanding of the theories which underpin contemporary practices, performances and exhibitions of modern art.
Admission Requirements Relevant Bachelor Degree with Honours (First/Upper Second Class); or relevant Master Degree with a substantial research component. A Portfolio/Audition/Interview is also required (where appropriate). You must also provide a Research Proposal and two Academic Referees.
Course Structure Requires three years of full-time study. The Doctor of Philosophy involves research resulting in the submission of a thesis which makes a significant and original contribution to the area of study. You are expected to
participate in seminars and workshops on topics of research and related study areas. A panel of supervisors will oversee the development and progress of your research. A prime requirement is that a Doctor of Philosophy must make a substantial contribution to knowledge in a designated field of study. It should show how theory is extended or tested to provide new knowledge. The research methods can be either quantitative or qualitative. The thesis should consist of 75,000-100,000 words or equivalent ratios of practice and written exegesis. An adapted version of the Doctor of Philosophy thesis should be of a standard that could be suitable for publication in a reputable journal. You are required to make satisfactory progress in each semester for thesis preparation units. Students who do not make satisfactory progress will not be eligible to remain in the course. Each semester, you enrol into research thesis unit: DVA7200. You are required to continue re-enrolling in the thesis component of your study until the thesis is submitted for examination.
