Bison Transport Scholarship

The Bison Transport Scholarship is awarded to a student who demonstrates exemplary commitment to academic achievement and to helping people through voluntary means, and who is enrolled in full-time studies in a Transportation, Logistics, Human Resources, or Business program at a public Canadian university or college. Bison Transport feels strongly about the importance of corporate commitment to people, and welcomes this opportunity to provide assistance to one student each year who is committed to similar values advanced at Bison Transport.

Applications will be assessed primarily on academic achievement as well as other ways that you help other people, either in your personal day-to-day involvement, or through volunteer/ charitable work.

At Bison, we believe that corporate success can only be attained with a commitment to people which results in a dedicated, reliable, motivated and skilled work force.
