The Baurat Mast Scholarship was established in 1962 by Mrs. Elise Gesine, known as Gertrud Mast, née Siems, the widow of Carl-Alfred Mast, a former graduate of the Technical University of Stuttgart.
Her will states: “These grants to students are intended to preserve the memory of my husband, City Planning Officer Carl-Alfred Mast, and myself, and are established in recognition of the fact that my husband successfully studied at the Technical University of Stuttgart.”
“I direct that the […] assets […] be used to grant an annual study grant to deserving and needy students of civil engineering, architecture, and urban planning at the Stuttgart University of Technology.” And “Recipients who have already received a grant may continue to be considered in future semesters.”
