DENVER–(BUSINESS WIRE)–PNX Capital Holdings, LLC, an emerging leader in domestic oil and gas production, is thrilled to announce the relaunch of the PNX Capital Scholarship. The program, first introduced last year, is designed to support students pursuing careers in the oil and gas industry by offering a $15,000 scholarship.
Eligible applicants must be full-time, first-year students currently enrolled at an accredited college or university. Students should be pursuing degrees related to the oil and gas industry, such as petroleum engineering, and must demonstrate strong academic performance, maintaining a minimum GPA of 3.5.
As part of the application process, students are required to submit both their high school GPA and, if applicable, their GPA for completed college courses. Additionally, applicants must provide a 2,000-word essay detailing their career goals in the oil and gas industry. The complete application, including the essay, must be submitted by the December 15, 2024, deadline.
Last year’s scholarship recipient, Arnoldo Montanez, a student at the Colorado School of Mines, was awarded the inaugural scholarship for his compelling vision of how the oil and gas industry can drive meaningful change. In his essay, Montanez referred to the industry as the “cornerstone of our modern civilization” and shared his personal commitment to shaping the sector’s future:
“The oil and gas industry has always captivated me, and the more I learn about it, the stronger my sense of awe and responsibility grows. This is why I am dedicated to pursuing a career as a petroleum engineer—the significance of this industry extends beyond extraction and utilization, encompassing innovation, challenges, and the potential to shape our future.”
A PNX Capital representative expressed pride in supporting students like Montanez: “Arnoldo exemplifies the passion and dedication needed to drive the future of the oil and gas sector. This scholarship underscores our commitment to fostering the next generation of industry leaders.”
