Edith Cowan University (ECU) is a public university in Perth, Australia. It is named in honour of the first woman to be elected to an Australian parliament, Edith Cowan, and is the only Australian university named after a woman. Gaining university status in 1991, it was formed from an amalgamation of tertiary colleges with a history dating back to 1902 when the Claremont Teachers College was established, making it the modern descendant of the first tertiary institution in Western Australia.

The university offers more than 300 courses across two metropolitan campuses, in Joondalup and Mount Lawley, and a regional campus in Bunbury, 200 kilometres (120 mi) south of Perth;many courses are also offered for study online. Additionally, the university has partnerships with several education institutions to conduct courses and programs offshore.In 2020, the university enrolled over 31,000 students at undergraduate and postgraduate level,approximately 7,000 of whom were international students.

Amongst its divisions are the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA), a performing arts training academy;the School of Nursing and Midwifery, which offers a large undergraduate nursing program and the School of Education which offers a wide range of secondary teaching specialisations. The university also provides Psychology and Community Studies, and is home to the WA Screen Academy.
