Abstract:This project consisted of hosting local Champaign-Urbana, Illinois home school students for a visit to
the Rail Transportation and Engineering Center (RailTEC) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-
Champaign (UIUC). Beyond visiting RailTEC, students were able to visit other aspects of the
Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE). This NURail educational project was
conducted to serve the students by introducing them to the basics of rail engineering in hopes that they
would be further encouraged to consider transportation in general and rail specifically in the future.
Additionally, it is our vision that the materials that were created will be used for future outreach
efforts.
