"I made the move to ECU as I had heard great things about the lecturers and the university."
"Mechatronics course at another university, but made the move to ECU as I had heard great things about the lecturers and the university. The practical work contained within the course is really useful as it helps you to understand the theory taught in the lectures. My greatest achievement so far has been receiving the Science and Innovation Studentship Award. This gave me the opportunity to not only complete my required work experience, but to put the knowledge and problem solving skills I obtained at university into practice."
