Clark Davis Ivins Memorial Travel Grant

The Clark Davis Ivins Memorial Travel Grant was established in 2014 by the family of Private Clark Davis Ivins, an Australian soldier who died during World War II at age 24 from wounds received at the Battle of Milne Bay in Papua New Guinea in 1942. To commemorate the 75th Anniversary of the Battle of Milne Bay in 2017, the Endowment was expanded to offer this travel grant. The grant provides financial support to students enrolled in the Bachelor of International Security Studies who are undertaking a global learning experience as part of their academic program. The award provides a variable once-off payment to support students participating in Global Learning Programs offered by ANU, with the amount determined annually at the time applications open. The grant is paid in a single instalment to the recipient prior to their approved travel departure.
