ECU International is a ‘one-stop shop’ service for the 2,200 international students at ECU; involving
admissions, fees, medical insurance, student welfare programs and student exchange programs.
ECU International services students through two teams: International
Admissions and International Student Support. The International Student
Support team comprises two full-time International Student Advisers while the International Admissions team comprises one full-time Study Abroad Adviser. International Student Advisers provide front-line
support/advisory services and advocacy for international students.
They are responsible for the organisation of general programs such as
Orientation, Airport Arrival, Going Home and social activities as well as providing
counselling services to individual students and advocacy within the
University and to external agencies as required (e.g. appeals against
assessment, landlord complaints, Small Claims tribunal actions).
The Study Abroad Adviser assists all students studying at ECU on Exchange or
Study Abroad programs with any matter relating to their academic and personal
experience while in Perth. They also manage a terrific exchange program under
which any Edith Cowan University student can study at anyone of over-sixty
partner universities in more than twenty countries for credit towards their ECU degree.
ECU International is currently located on Joondalup campus and our dedicated fulltime
Student Advisers are available on each of the metropolitan campuses throughout
each and every week of the semester.
