摘要: The Civil Engineering Department at the University of Missouri-Rolla (UMR) has hosted a USDOT Summer Transportation Institute (STI) for the past four years. The Programs have been very successful. The STI is a 5 week intensive during summer for high school student-targeted primarily toward minorities but not limited to them. The goals of the STI are to: (1) expose secondary school students to and allow them to participate in a series of academic and practical experiences designed to motivate them toward professions in the transportation industry; and (2) provide secondary school students with mathematics, science and technological enrichment to enable them to pursue a career in the transportation industry. This would help to increase the numbers of youths entering the transportation profession and would help the University in its recruiting efforts. The students (11th and 12th graders) are subjected to a health dose of campus life. Once again we will offer a 3 credit course as part of the curriculum this year and consequently the program length remains at 5 weeks.
