FFY 2022 National Summer Transportation Institute

Notice of Available Grant for Educational Institution to Participate as a NSTI Host Site

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MNDOT) Office of Civil Rights are accepting applications from educational institutions to participate as a host site in the National Summer Transportation Institute (NSTI) 2022 Program.

NSTI program objectives are to:

• improve STEM skills,
• provide awareness to middle and high school students about transportation careers (particularly minority, female and disadvantaged youth) and
• encourage participants to consider transportation-related fields of study in their higher education pursuits.

NSTI host sites are required to commit significant program time to classroom instruction. The length of the NSTI program is typically 2-4 consecutive weeks. Host sites may elect to operate a day program, virtual program, or residential program, where room and board are provided by the host site.

Host Site Applications for the 2022 NSTI are due October 21, 2021 at 4:30 p.m.
