Chevron invests in Mississippi State engineering
September 13, 2016
Chevron continued its support of Mississippi State University and the Bagley College of Engineering with a $360,000 donation that was announced at State’s football game against South Carolina. This year’s gift is part of a three-year commitment of $1,080,000 that will support several initiatives within the college, including a new teaching lab, academic and study abroad scholarships and the Chevron Engineering Transfer program which supports minority engineering students transferring into Mississippi State.
Overall, Chevron has invested more than $2.9 million at Mississippi State University over the last six years.
