From aviation student to aviation lecturer
Fatemeh Tajrobehkar studied aviation at ECU before returning home to Iran where she achieved an MBA. After working in a flying school for 4 years she returned to ECU as an aviation lecturer.
She says:
"The best experience is when you hear the name of the flight captain who was your student many years ago. I go to the cockpit and watch them do what they love, and it fills me with pure joy."
Things you should know about if you're thinking about studying here.
There's more than one admission pathway into an ECU course. It depends on what you've studied already, or your work or life experience.
Course tuition fees can change, but we can give you an estimate of your costs. If you're eligible, a scholarship or student loan can help too.
Applying for a course is a fairly simple process, especially if you have scanned copies of qualifications, your resume or other paperwork, ready to upload.
Starting a course is an exciting and sometimes daunting time, so we make a massive effort to ensure you get all the support you need to have a positive experience.
