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) 2023 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, hybrid program, virtual program, or a residential program, where room and board are provided by the host site.
Host site applications for the 2023 NSTI are due Sept. 23, 2022, at 4:30 p.m.
