Matthew J. Mason has established the Matthew J. Mason ’21 Endowed Chemical Engineering Scholarship. This endowment will be used to provide one or more scholarships to full-time students in good standing pursuing an undergraduate degree in chemical engineering from Texas A&M University. 
 
As an out-of-state student, Mason understands the impact that scholarships can have on lessening the financial burden of attending college. He has chosen to establish this scholarship to help students attend Texas A&M and offset some of those financial hardships.
 
“My endowment is designed to help students with tuition costs. A very similar endowment is what allowed me to attend Texas A&M and devote myself to learning and networking,” Mason said.
 
Additionally, he hopes to leave a lasting legacy at Texas A&M and encourage future students. “I hope that my gift will allow students to focus more on school and extracurriculars instead of worrying about paying tuition.”
 
Mason was initially drawn to Texas A&M for a few reasons. “I came to Texas A&M because I believe in the power of the Aggie network and loved the traditions surrounding the school,” he said.
 
Although he has not yet graduated, Mason knows that Texas A&M has prepared him for whatever he may face after graduation and wants to give students like himself this same opportunity.
