George Mason University has once again been recognized by Best Workplaces for Commuters (BWC) for its commitment to providing employees with high-quality commuter benefits and transportation options. For 2026, all three of George Mason’s campuses – Fairfax, Mason Square, and SciTech – have earned BWC recognition, marking an important milestone for the university.
This year is especially notable as the SciTech Campus has received BWC recognition independently for the first time, highlighting its continued growth and expanded commuter-focused programs that support faculty and staff.
Best Workplaces for Commuters is a national program that recognizes organizations offering comprehensive commuter benefits that help reduce environmental impact, improve commuting experiences, and support employee well-being. George Mason’s continued inclusion reflects its ongoing investment in sustainable transportation, flexible commuting options, and a campus culture that prioritizes accessibility and quality of life.
“This recognition reflects the intentional work happening across all of our campuses to make commuting easier, more flexible, and more sustainable for our employees,” said Josh Cantor, Director of Parking and Transportation at George Mason University. “We are especially proud to see the SciTech Campus recognized independently this year and to continue advancing innovative solutions, including new technologies at Mason Square, that improve the daily experience for our campus community.”
Auxiliary and Business Services, including Parking and Transportation, supports these efforts across all campuses through innovative commuter programs and technology-forward solutions. At Mason Square, this includes the implementation of the Metropolis parking system, which streamlines parking access and enhances the overall commuter experience.
