Since 2016, Sustainable Buildings Canada has been supporting 3 deserving students per year in the pursuit of their educational goals through a $1,000 dollar bursary.

After six years, Sustainable Buildings Canada is pleased to announce that once again in 2021, they will be supporting 3 college students. After a review of potential candidates, SBC has selected the following individuals as recipients of a $1,000 bursary:

• Elsa Le – M.Arch. student at Dessau International Architecture, Germany.
• Hannah Villeneuve- Third-year undergraduate studying Environmental Engineering at Carleton University.
• Erika Ponce Acosta- Project Management Environmental Graduate Certificate – Seneca College

How does the bursary program work?

Candidates for the bursary must be enrolled in a post-secondary education institution and provide proof of acceptance and enrolment. Programs eligible for the bursary should be focused in engineering, environmental, building science and planning, or trades training that support those disciplines, however candidates in other disciplines that support the industry in areas such as policy, law and finance are also be considered. Candidates should have demonstrated an interest in pursuing a career in the sector and have experience volunteering or supporting SBC programs and initiatives. The Board of SBC selects candidates at its sole discretion on the basis of recommendations from stakeholders, partners and academia.
