    Sophie Chandler

    ECU Bachelor of Science (Biomedical Science) graduate

    I could not have asked for a better university experience

    There was a great balance of laboratory and practical work at ECU, alongside the theory and lectures. I now have a strong understanding of the human body, and with extensive practical experience, I believe I can transition into studying medicine. I could not have asked for a better university experience to prepare me for the next step in my life and career.

  • Claudia Muller

    ECU Counter Terrorism Security and Intelligence graduate

    I consciously chose ECU because its offering was unique

    I've always been interested in Intelligence and was delighted when I found ECU's Bachelor of Counter Terrorism Security and Intelligence course. I chose ECU because its offering was unique. The lecturers for the Bachelor of Counterterrorism, Security and Intelligence are also world-class. They have each had successful careers in intelligence and/or security, and are truly passionate about their subject areas.
