Abstract:
The primary purpose of this study was to assess the attitudes, experiences, and awareness level of

students exposed to a specialized transportation curriculum and to track the progress of participants in a

series of summer transportation institutes and other outreach programs held during the period, 1999-2008.

These programs include the Summer Transportation Institutes in Texas, Go Girl!, On the Move!, Career

Exploration, the Rural Transportation Institutes, and Students from Nontraditional Backgrounds. Although

an attempt was made to contact students from all of outreach events, the vast majority of responses and data

were obtained from the participants in the Texas Summer Transportation Institute and the SWUTC funded

Summer Aviation Transportation Institute and Rural Summer Transportation Institute.

Many of the students contacted are either currently attending a university or beginning their careers. This

project attempted to determine the status of these students and document whether and where they are

attending college as well as their course of study. If appropriate the team then contacted the student to gauge

their desire for interaction with either a University Transportation Center or transportation program.
