East Carolina University is a public, doctoral/research university located in Greenville, North Carolina, United States. Named East Carolina University by statute and commonly known as ECU or East Carolina, its more than 27,800 students make it the third-largest university and fastest-growing campus in the University of North Carolina system for six consecutive years.[4]
While East Carolina is renowned for its programs in education, nursing, business, music, theater, and medicine, it offers over 100 Bachelor degree programs, 85 master's degrees, 21 doctoral programs and 62 certificates.[5] The school also serves the region, the state and the nation through The Brody School of Medicine at East Carolina University,[6] The Small Business Institute,[7] Institute for Coastal Science and Policy, Center for Sustainable Tourism, Institute of Outdoor Drama, Center for Natural Hazards, Center for Applied Computational Studies, Leo W. Jenkins Cancer Center and East Carolina Heart Institute.
The university's academic facilities are located on five properties encompassing 1,600 acres: Main Campus, Health Sciences Campus, West Research facility, the Field Station for Coastal Studies in New Holland, North Carolina, and the Studio Art Campus in Certaldo Alto, Italy.[8][9] The nine undergraduate colleges, graduate school, and four professional schools are all located on these five properties.[10] All of the non-health sciences majors, including those in the Thomas Harriot College of Arts and Sciences, are located on the main campus. The College of Nursing, College of Allied Health Sciences, The Brody School of Medicine and School of Dental Medicine are located on the health science campus. There are nine social sororities, 16 social fraternities, four historically black sororities, five historically black fraternities, one Native American fraternity, and one Native American sorority.[11] Along with Greek life, there are over 300 registered clubs on campus[12]
Public Laws of North Carolina, 1907, Chapter 820 titled An Act to Stimulate High School Instruction in the Public Schools of the State and Teacher Training is the official law chartering East Carolina Teachers Training School (ECTTS) on March 8, 1907 by the North Carolina General Assembly.[13] The chairman of its original Board of Trustees, Thomas Jordan Jarvis, a former Governor of North Carolina now known as the "Father of ECU", participated in groundbreaking ceremonies for the first buildings on July 2, 1908 in Greenville, North Carolina and ECTTS opened its doors on October 5, 1909.[14][15] Although its purpose was to train "young white men and women", there were no male graduates until 1932.[16] In 1920, ECTTS became a four–year institution and renamed East Carolina Teachers College (ECTC); its first bachelor's degrees were awarded the following year in education.[14] A master's degree program was authorized in 1929; the first such degree granted by ECTC was in 1933.[14] Progress toward full college status was made in 1948 with the designation of the bachelor of arts as a liberal arts degree, and the bachelor of science as a teaching degree.[17] A change of name to East Carolina College in 1951 reflected this expanded mission.[14] Over the objections of Governor Dan K. Moore, who opposed the creation of a university system separate from the Consolidated University of North Carolina, ECC was made a regional university effective July 1, 1967, and assumed its present name, East Carolina University. The university did not remain independent for long; on July 1, 1972, it was incorporated into the University of North Carolina System, the successor to the Consolidated University.[14] Today, ECU is the third–largest university in North Carolina with 20,974 undergraduate and 6,417 graduate students, including the 286 Brody School of Medicine students.[2][18]
East Carolina is separated into three distinct campuses: Main Campus, Health Sciences Campus, and West Research Campus. It owns two sports complexes: Blount Recreational Sports Complex and North Recreational Complex. It owns a field station in New Holland, North Carolina.
The main campus, also known as the east campus, is about 530 acres (2 km2) in an urban residential area of downtown Greenville. The 158 buildings on main campus comprise more than 4.6 million square feet (325,000 m²) of academic, research, and residential space.[8] Many of the Main Campus buildings feature the Spanish–Mission style architecture; inspiration drawn from Thomas Jarvis' time as an ambassador to Brazil.[19][20] He wanted to bring the unique architecture to eastern North Carolina. On the main campus, there are five districts: Campus Core, Downtown District, Warehouse District, Athletic fields and the South Academic District. On the Campus Core, there are 15 residence halls which are divided into three separate neighborhoods.[21] The distinct feature of the main campus is the mall, which is a large tree–laden grassy area where many students go to relax. In the middle of the mall is the replica of the cupola on the original Austin building.
The varsity athletics fields are located south of the College Hill residential neighborhood. Fourteenth Street divides College Hill to the north, with the athletic fields to the south. Charles Boulevard borders the fields to the west and Greenville Boulevard borders it to the south. A residential neighborhood and Elmhurst Elementary School are the eastern borders. The northern portion of the area sits Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium, Minges Coliseum and Minges Natatorium, along with parking. The Murphy Center, which is the primary strength and conditioning, and banquet building, is located between Dowdy-Ficklen and Minges Coliseum.[22] The Tennis Complex, Ward Sports Medicine Building, Scales Field House and the Pirate Club Building also all surround Dowdy-Ficklen. The Ward Sports Medicine Building houses offices for football and basketball, Pirate Club, media relations and the director of athletics.[23] The Scales Field House provides locker rooms, offices and equipment storage.[24] The Pirate Club Building houses a ticket office, other offices and an area for Pirate Club members.[25] South of those facilities is the Cliff Moore Practice Facility which has a pair of natural grass fields and one FieldTurf field designed exclusively for the football team.[26] On the southern border of the practice facility is Clark-LeClair Stadium, which is the men's baseball stadium. It opened in 2005 and seats 3,000 in permanent seating with another 2,000 located in the outfield.[27] At the southern end of the fields is the Olympic Sports Complex, which include women's soccer stadium, softball stadium, track and field facility, and Olympic Sports Team building. The Olympic Sports Complex was completed in 2011 with a price of $23.4 million. Future construction include a new $15 million Basketball development and practice facility. This building is scheduled to open in 2013. Also, Dowdy-Ficklen will have a $40 million upgrade. The upgrades will include a new press, club, and suite areas, and upper deck. This addition will increase the capacity from 50,000 to 60,000.[28]
East Carolina has spent $92 million on athletic projects from 1998-2011. Including the proposed projects, this is increased to $145 million.[28]
The Health Sciences campus is situated beside Vidant Medical Center formerly known as Pitt County Memorial Hospital.

SpeechEasy is a device intended to improve the fluency of a person who stutter by changing the sound of the user's voice in their ear. A faculty member at Brody School of Medicine developed the standard procedure for gastric bypass surgery. Through the ECU Metabolic Institute, researchers first discovered that 80% of type 2 diabetic patients who underwent this procedure had a reversal of the disease. The Biofeedback Lab is currently developing techniques to help service members recover from posttraumatic stress disorders and traumatic brain injuries they received in Afghanistan and Iraq. The in vitro fertilization program is ranked first in North Carolina and fourth overall in the United States.
