ECU Students speak for themselves
 

ECU talks about getting you ready for the real world so you land a hot career when you graduate. Well it didn't work like that for me. I was offered a brilliant position while I was still a student! I can pretty much put it down to two things: an industry placement that put me in a big pair of shoes, and inspirational lecturers who gave me the knowledge, skills and confidence to fill them.

John Forbes

“ Psychology is all about understanding people. ECU certainly understood me.”

"They understood that I had a life and responsibilities outside uni. They also understood where I wanted my degree to take me. So ECU removed the barriers, fired me up with passion for my subject, and gave me the knowledge, wisdom and experience I needed to get where I am today: A partner in a psychology business with 3 premises and counting! I’d recommend ECU to anyone who wants to get ahead. They’ll do their best to understand you and your aspirations.”

ECU Psychology graduate, John Forbes
