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 2013 STI program was comprised of rising tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grade students
from 10 different counties in Montana and three 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. Eighteen secondary school students participated in the 2013
Summer Transportation Institute, which ran from June 16 to June 28, 2013.
