The ConocoPhillips SPIRIT Scholars program recruits outstanding students and provides them with leadership and public service opportunities throughout their college careers.

The students receive scholarships, potential summer internships, business-related training and professional mentoring. In addition to academics, ConocoPhillips funds enrichment activities, such as performance art and museum trips, along with guided tours of various ConocoPhillips refineries.
