Erica Underwood House

Conveniently located just a short walk from Curtin Perth and Waterford Plaza shopping centre.

Sitting across the road from the campus and a five-minute walk from shops and restaurants, Erica Underwood House embodies the student experience.

There are 54 furnished, six-bedroom apartments, which accommodate a total of 324 students. There is a communal atmosphere, with a shared common room and large outdoor areas to unwind with friends after a day of study.

And if you’re curious about the accommodation namesake, Erica Underwood was the first psychologist trained in Western Australia and the first female member of the council of the Western Australian Institute of Technology – Curtin’s predecessor institution. Erica Underwood House is one of five properties on campus managed by UniLodge. Find out more by visiting the UniLodge website.
