Students can use the computer labs any day of the week between 8am and 8pm, whether it’s for internet research, to complete an assignment or project, or just to browse the web or email friends and family.

The library provides support, services and information to help you with your studies, including the most recent editions of all textbooks and other printed media that you need to reference for your individual course.

ECU has a wide range of recreation and special interest clubs on campus, many of them facilitated by the Student Council. The Student Council and Rotaract Clubs empower student leaders to get involved in and organise various activities, including charity events, corporate social responsibility (CSR) projects, career development programs and more for their peers.

Cricket is a major sport in Sri Lanka – and it’s no different at ECU, with a dedicated cricket club for this national pastime. Other sports clubs that students can join include rugby, basketball and football.
