Each year the School recognises the outstanding achievements of our students by awarding prizes at a formal ceremony held at a venue in the Perth City area.
Prize selection is awarded according to eligibility criteria, generally the highest unit mark or the highest Weighted Average Mark (WAM) in a course.
Students who have won a prize are notified by March and are invited to attend the annual prize ceremony in either October or November each year. The Student Prize Ceremony is an important event for our School. We are proud of our students and delight in celebrating their outstanding achievements.
Please direct any queries to the Office of Teaching & Learning sbltandl@ecu.edu.au
