Do you have any questions about the Business study discipline?
I graduated from ECU feeling confident, and with the ability to be versatile in my career
I began studying at another uni but transferred to ECU because of the smaller class sizes and personable lecturers who made me feel valued and supported. ECU provided a well-rounded degree, allowing me to analyse problems through critical thinking. I also loved interacting with students from different age groups and backgrounds.
My postgraduate Project Management degree helped in securing a job
I am currently working at the Public Transport Authority (PTA) as a Project Support Officer. My postgraduate Project Management degree helped in securing a job, as most of my colleagues had extensive work experience. I am the youngest team member and was able to get this opportunity solely because of my studies at ECU.
The internship I completed in my final semester has been the perfect stepping stone to advance my career
I chose to study International Hotel and Resort Management at ECU because I had heard of the practical nature of the course. My lecturers were very experienced in the hospitality and tourism industry and provided real life examples and case studies to link theory with current industry practice.
I was lucky enough to take part in the Borneo study tour, and no words can describe how amazing that experience was. In my final semester at ECU, I was able to secure an internship placement. Since graduating, I have been accepted into the graduate program at Accor hotels, where I will be relocating to Broome.
