VanMar Building Futures Bursary Program
The VanMar Building Futures Bursary Program bursaries are awarded to recognize outstanding post-secondary co-op students participating in VanMar’s Student Co-operative Education Experience Program, and to support students with financial need enrolled in an Architectural Technology, Construction Engineering Technology, Civil Engineering, Building Systems Engineering, or Urban Planning program with an accredited college or university.
The VanMar Building Futures Bursary Program encourages and rewards repetitive post-secondary student Co-Operative Education experience terms with the company. Therefore, the VanMar Building Futures Bursary Program is progression-based. Essentially, after completing their second co-op term with VanMar, an outstanding co-op student will be eligible to apply for larger bursaries than after their first co-op term, and even larger bursaries after their third co-op term than their first and second co‑op terms.
