The University of Maine in Orono will host the Maine Summer  
Transportation Institute (MSTI) 2009 for middle school students from  
July 13 – July 24, 2009 in the Foster Sudent Innovation Center.  The  
purpose of the Institute is to create awareness and stimulate interest  
in students to take full advantage of the opportunities that exist in  
the transportation industry.  The MSTI is funded by a grant from the  
Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and is opened to students  
attending public and private schools in the Greater Bangor Area.  The  
Institute is an extremely intense and structured learning opportunity  
for youth in the middle school systems of Maine.
The curriculum will expose students to new frontiers and adventures  
such as highway design, alternative fuels, construction materials,  
transportation of people and cargo, intermodalism, laws, regulations,  
safety, and career opportunities.  In addition, students will  
participate in computer training, academic enhancement activities,  
field trips, and student projects.
You can find more information about this opportunity, eligibility  
requirements and an application form at http://www.umaine.edu/msti
