Gavin Walkley Memorial Grant in Architecture
University of South Australia
The Gavin Walkley Memorial Grant in Architecture has been established by Jane Walkley in memory of her father, Dr Gavin Walkley CBE, LFRAIA, who was a noted South Australian architect, town planner and academic. Dr Walkley spent 25 years (1951-76) as Head of the University's Louis Laybourne Smith School of Architecture and Design, during which time he greatly expanded the range of design and planning education on offer, by including subjects such as town planning, landscape design, and interior design.
Eligibility
The grant is open to full-time students undertaking the first year of a Master of Architecture at the University of South Australia who are in need of financial support. Applicants will be required to submit a portfolio of their work undertaken during their Bachelor of Architectural Studies (or equivalent) program. The portfolio should include a maximum of 2 design projects undertaken individually by the applicant (including a brief design statement), a research based textual work (e.g. a History and Theory essay) and a covering letter. The work selected for the portfolio should demonstrate the applicant's developing skills and knowledge with an emphasis on architectural design, urban design and architectural history.
