With corporate headquarters located in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the company continues to grow its footprint, currently operating in more than 15 states.

From recruiting diverse talent and supporting university and technical school diversity associations to implementing a comprehensive internal inclusion strategy, the future of ONEOK is a unique, ever-evolving workforce inclusive of the ideas, talents and strategies of all ONEOK employees. As ONEOK grows its operations in North Dakota and Montana, the need for qualified and experienced personnel in energy-related fields increases. City College at Montana State University Billings has a record of preparing its students for successful careers in the energy industry, and ONEOK appreciates the opportunity this scholarship affords it to contribute to the education of hardworking students in programs like diesel technology and process plant technology. ONEOK looks forward to continuing its relationship with City College and having skilled graduates join its team. The first scholarships were awarded in academic year 2017-2018.
