International Cafe
Being an international student is an exciting opportunity – you get to build new friendships and amazing international contacts. But it can also be a little overwhelming.
ECU invites international students to come along, connect with fellow international students, the university and the city of Perth.
From movie nights, tours and crafts workshops, to casual cafe catch-ups. All of our events are free!
