Abstract:The Summer Transportation Institute (STI) hosted by the Western Transportation Institute (WTI) at
Montana State University (MSU) aims to heighten student interest in transportation careers at the pre-college level. The program recruits high school students to participate in a two-week educational
program on the MSU campus. The residential program introduces participants to all modes of
transportation, seeks to build creative problem-solving skills, and supports college and career planning
activities. The 2014 STI program was comprised of rising tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grade students
from 7 different counties in Montana and 3 additional states. Students lived on the MSU campus while
participating in a multidisciplinary academic curriculum, which included guest speaker presentations,
hands-on laboratories, and field trips. Students gained leadership skills while working on team design-build projects. During the evenings and weekend, STI students participated in educational, sports, and
team-building activities. Twelve secondary school students completed the program, which ran from
June 15 to June 27, 2014.
