Overview

ECU’s campus in Sri Lanka campus offers pathway programs through partner institutes Edith Cowan College, Perth (ECC) and Australian College of Business and Technology (Pvt) Ltd (ACBT).

The program is specially designed for students wishing to enrol in the wide range of programs offered by ECU’s School of Engineering. The Engineering programs are structured heavily around practical learning; you will have the opportunity to work with real hardware, not just simulation packages.

The program consists of 8 units of study and can be completed over 2 or 3 trimesters.

Students who successfully complete 4 units under the ACBT Diploma program will receive Advanced Standing in the ECC Diploma of Science (Engineering Studies) Program – Year 2 (CRICOS Code 092036D).

Students also have the possibility of receiving up to 8 units (120 credit points) advanced standing, the equivalent of the first year, in the respective bachelor’s degree at ECU.

A minimum of 50% pass in all units is required for progression to ECU.
