Funded Activity Summary
Universities and Postwar Recovery 1943-57. This project aims to investigate the impact and transformative effect of the university education-led recovery in postwar Australia from 1943 to 1957. It will do so by undertaking a collective biographical survey of 6,500 ex-service men and women university graduates funded under the Commonwealth Reconstruction Training Scheme. It expects to generate new knowledge in the area of Australian history, especially the history of war repatriation, the development of the professions and the history of higher education. Expected outcomes include understanding the qualities of an education-led recovery and the worth of public investment in higher education. Benefits include increased research capacity in 20th century Australian history.Funded Activity Details
