Joondalup ECU

The Joondalup area was mostly developed after 1990. The Edith Cowan University campus occupies a large tract of land in the southern section of the suburb. The campus was constructed to cater for the massive population growth in the northern suburbs and therefore student demographic changes. ECU also has another campus at Mount Lawley. The ECU Churchlands campus was decommissioned some years ago and various schools were transferred here
