"I didn’t even consider a different university when I decided to start my PhD"
Fleur SharafizadBusiness PhD student My lecturers and tutors have always accommodated my family-study balance and were willing to listen and help me out.
My greatest achievement has been completing my tertiary education and now attempting to obtain my PhD while being a full-time carer of three children.
This has only been possible because of the flexibility at ECU.
The amount of assistance, resources, contacts and workshops ECU provides along the way helps make this challenging journey as easy as possible.

"When I enrolled at ECU, little did I know that it would lead to me being a part of something historic"
Jacqueline HarknessSport, Recreation and Event Management In my last semester of my Sport, Recreation and Event Management course I got an industry placement in the Events Department of the Fremantle Dockers Football Club.
Due to my positive work ethic, I was offered casual employment. When Fremantle made it to their first ever home preliminary final, it was so exciting to be a part of it all! On the Thursday before the finals I was suddenly asked to fly over to Melbourne to fill in for a permanent staff member. For the Grand Final, I was in charge of managing security, caterers and audio technicians.
All the skills and theory I picked up in my years at ECU helped me play a part in running the biggest function the club ever had – their historic first grand final.
