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.

UNI Life
We’re all about freedom
A whole new world of learning
Starting university is one of the most exciting adventures you will ever experience! It marks the beginning of a new journey towards your future career and opens up a fascinating new phase of your life.
At ECU, not everything happens in a classroom. We provide a variety of learning environments, including laboratories, simulated hospitals and industry environments in Perth, Regional Western Australia and throughout the world.
No two students’ experience of university and campus life is the same; but here are a few helpful tips and pointers to make sure your time at ECU is enjoyable and worthwhile.
Finding your way
New people The thought of meeting new people can be quite daunting, but one of the great benefits of studying at ECU is that aside from studying with people who have similar interests and ambitions, you will also be interacting with people from different countries and cultures. You can kick start the socialisation process by attending orientation, as this is a great time to meet people studying the same course as you.
More people We have about 25,000 students, with some 5,000 international students representing more than 90 different countries; making ECU a truly multi-cultural environment. Depending on the popularity of the subject, class sizes can have between 30-350 students. So if you want a good seat, it is advisable to turn up early!
New ways of learning Get ready to manage your own timetable with no school bells! The responsibility will rest with you to successfully complete your studies. It is a good idea to set aside roughly 40 hours per week for university work. This will include class time as well as assignment preparation and study time. You will most likely have one lecture per week per subject, with the duration ranging from 1-3 hours. Each subject usually also has a tutorial for 1-2 hours with classes of 15-30 students. Tutorials offer an excellent opportunity to further investigate and analyse key areas highlighted at the lecture. You may spend as little as 12 hours per week in formal lectures and tutorials, depending on your number of lectures and tutorials per week. Depending on university timetabling, you may be able to fit your timetable into several days or it may spread over the duration of the week.
Don’t be overwhelmed by the size of our campuses. Orientation is an ideal way for you to navigate your way around campus with dedicated staff available to answer your queries and guide you around our campuses.
Getting Connected ECU maintains a first-class technology infrastructure, with wi-fi access and dedicated e-Labs running the latest software.
Space to study Forget cramped classrooms. You will find great study spaces and facilities all over our campuses including libraries with cafés and on-campus e-Labs to keep you connected wherever you are.
Getting involved There are a variety of clubs, societies and support groups where you can meet people who share common interests. A vibrant campus culture also offers cafés, art exhibitions, film festivals, sporting activities, cultural events, and performances. TIME

Our courses are ranked in the top four Australian universities for graduate satisfaction and teaching (Good Universities Guide 2009). You will find a range of relevant and practical degrees that can lead to decidedly different careers in fields such as biological sciences, environmental management, chemistry, conservation and wildlife biology, marine biology and more. You’ll also have access to the latest facilities in the purposebuilt $28 million Science building, located on the Joondalup Campus. Teaching and Learning Excellence ECU is committed to teaching and learning excellence and boasts a Five-Star Rating for overall course satisfaction by the student-completed Course Experience Questionnaire for courses in the Biology, Chemistry and Environmental Science area. All biology, chemistry and environmental science courses offered are regularly reviewed by Course Consultative Committees (consisting of industry and government representatives) who provide valuable feedback on our approaches and content. This means that all degrees are tailored to the needs of the discipline, our students, and potential employers.
“Real-World” Experience Our students are immersed in a stimulating and highly supportive teaching and learning environment. All courses are structured to have a strong practical component and most include a requirement for students to be involved in work experience practice. Industry professionals are regularly brought in to give guest lectures and students are exposed to the “real-world” in the laboratory and on field trips. Our students also get the chance to conduct research that will benefit the community and ecosystem.
“Chemistry is challenging but ECU brings it to life.”
Surf Science in Bunbury
“Chemistry at ECU allows you to stretch yourself intellectually, and provides a wealth of industry-relevant skills. The equipment is of professional standard so by the time you’ve graduated you’re ready to apply yourself in industry labs.”
Students from across the globe come to ECU’s South West Campus in Bunbury for the Bachelor of Science (Surf Science and Technology). Close to some of the best surfing beaches in the world, the course focuses not only on surf sporting skills, but also marine environments, materials science, and business.

“ECU’s engineering lecturers are accessible and their enthusiasm is contagious.” “The course lays the foundation with maths and science – which makes it incredibly flexible. I’ll end up prepared for any number of careers. We have access to world-class facilities, but good engineering also demands creativity, so we also learn how to think outside the box.”
Saayli Shitole ECU Engineering student
engineering & technology Engineering covers a large range of disciplines leading to an enormous variety of careers. It is our aim at ECU to provide you with pathways into the best of those careers. What’s more, our collaboration with industry means that not only are our graduates ready for the real world of engineering, they often have a foot in the door too. And the experience they gain at our advanced labs and workshops means that they can hit the ground running. Choose from our range of courses in Engineering, Motorsports, Aviation and more. New Engineering Facilities A sharp increase in engineering enrolments at ECU and the expanded relationships with community groups and industrial sectors has led to the construction of a new state-of-the-art Engineering and Technology facility at ECU. The 8,000 square metre building will include dedicated lecture rooms, wet and dry laboratories, project spaces and amenities. Construction is currently underway and completion is expected in 2011.
Motorsports – One of a Kind! ECU is the only university in Australia to offer the unique Bachelor of Technology (Motorsports), in which students design and build racing cars. The course includes design, manufacturing (via computer aided design - CAD) and million dollar machinery, and engineering skills. Each year students

“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.
Beyond the Courtroom If you have an interest in law or justice, you don’t necessarily have to aim for a career in the courtroom. Your desire to make a difference in this world will serve you well in a career in youth justice, social work, corrections, forensic investigation, law enforcement, customs and business, just to name a few.

Intrigued by TV Shows like Silent Witness, Law and Order and CSI? If you have ever imagined yourself on the side of justice, in a scene from Silent Witness, Law and Order or CSI, perhaps you should consider a career in solving crimes.

Graduates will be able to collect, analyse and interpret forensic data and present that evidence in court. 65

“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

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.
Considering A Graduate Diploma Of Education? If you already hold an undergraduate degree in any area, it takes just one year of full-time study to become a fully qualified teacher. A Graduate Diploma of Education is a great option with courses available in both on-campus and residency mode in Early Childhood, Primary or Secondary teaching.

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.”
Christine Mahncke ECU Planning student 102
Bringing Industry Experience into the Classroom The team of staff from ECU’s Centre for Planning has over 30 years of world-wide industry experience combined. You benefit from their wealth of knowledge and practical experience and receive personalised and individual attention.

Admission requirements Practical/theoretical test and an audition / interview. Information relating to audition requirements and procedures is available from the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts.
Course Structure Requires three years of full-time study (360 Credit Points). With the exception of common core subjects, the course has an internal flexibility that allows the student the choice of
whether to narrowly pursue their major or, alternatively, to take a path that deliberately crosses genres. Thus, while this course is unique in being able to offer such rich interdisciplinary routes (e.g. the Classical trombonist who takes classes in Jazz improvisation; the composer who works with dance or the Technology students who takes classes in counterpoint etc.), it can also accommodate students who are single-minded and intense in their focus (e.g. the no compromise Classical violinist; the Jazz improviser specialising in bebop and the film-music composer working only in electronic media etc.). The course is divided into a sequential arrangement of four cornerstones of music. 1. Principal Studies: encapsulates the principal practice of each major. For performers - solo instrumental/vocal tuition is offered, as is experience and training in ensemble work and public performance skills. Composers and music technology students follow a path that is both creative and theoretical, and students following the music studies major pursue largely historical/analytical/critical studies. 2. Music History and Culture: in addition to offering a broad range of historical surveys and specialist seminars, offers modules in research skills and generic communication skills for the professional musician. 3. Music Techniques: comprises a sequentially graded course in music theory, aural training, improvisation, harmony, counterpoint, keyboard and composition skills. 4. Ensembles and Projects: Small and large ensembles in a variety of genres; specialist projects across a range of musical topics and the opportunity to undertake electives from a multiplicity of areas.
