Founded in 1991, Edith Cowan University was named in honor of Edith Dircksey Cowan OBE, the first woman elected to the Australian Parliament. Cowan was a pioneering advocate for education, social justice, and women’s rights, believing in the power of education to drive societal progress.
Her dedication to education and equity is reflected in ECU’s core values today. She remains the only woman to have an Australian university named after her, and her legacy is celebrated on Australia’s $50 banknote.
At ECU, we uphold her vision by empowering students with knowledge, critical thinking skills, and the confidence to make a meaningful impact in their communities.
