ECU Indigenous University Orientation Course and Bachelor of Sport, Recreation and Event Management graduate
My ECU studies have taught me that hard work pays off
My study experience has been amazing and I am grateful for the connections I have built with friends from my futsal team, who I now consider my family.
I first began my journey with ECU through the Indigenous University Orientation Course. This pathway gave me the guidance and time to help me pick a career I am passionate about.
The lecturers offer great support and will always do their best to help you out when you need.
My ECU studies have taught me that hard work pays off and I am proving that more and more each semester, as I get closer to the end of my studies.
ECU Finance graduate
I chose ECU because it offered fully online units with fantastic student support, which was ideal when I was working full time at the start of my degree
My entire world view has been expanded by studying at ECU. I had no real idea how complicated Finance was before I started. The further into my studies I have progressed, the more I have leant on things I picked up in the first year introductory classes. The skills I have picked up during my course have always had a compounding effect and I now feel comfortable to market myself to employers.
ECU Sport, Recreation and Event Management graduate
My experience working with the Eagles has been a dream come true.
I had an interest in working behind the scenes in sport and found ECU offered this degree and had a partnership with the Eagles that offered internships. My experience working with West Coast has helped me understand the way events work in a major sporting organisation and gave me a foot-in-the-door to full-time employment with them.
