University of South Australia
The Peter McInnes Memorial Travel Grant will be awarded to UniSA Business School postgraduate students participating in the Executive Partners Program who are successful in their application to join the College of William and Mary intensive global exchange experience. The grant honours Peter McInnes and his commitment to developing graduates for global professional careers through his leadership of the Business School's Executive Partners Program (EPP). The College of William and Mary is one of only eight public 'Ivy League Universities'. It is the second oldest College in the US, and is one of the highest ranked universities in the country. It is located in Williamsburg, Virginia, United States.
Eligibility
The exchange will be an intensive three-week global experience, usually scheduled between October-November each year, at the College of William and Mary in the Mason School of Business. The travel grant provides financial assistance towards the costs of travel and living expenses associated with the three-week exchange. Students will not need to pay tuition fees at the College of William and Mary. Recipients of the travel grant will not normally be eligible to apply for other short-term study, placement or study tour travel grants available through the University. Applicants are required to provide a written statement (300-500 words maximum) addressing the following: - How the exchange fits within their current program - How the exchange would contribute to their future career prospects and personal development - What they would like to achieve by undertaking this exchange - What attributes they possess that make them an ideal ambassador for the UniSA Business School and UniSA - Australia's University of Enterprise. To receive the grants, applicants must demonstrate a passion for their program, strong motivation to succeed, have clear future goals and be willing to act as an ambassador for the EPP. Shortlisted applicants will be required to attend a selection panel interview, and the panel's decision will be final.
