NATIONAL SUMMER TRANSPORTATION INSTITUTE (NSTI)-VERMONT

The NSTI is a fun, interactive, **FREE** residential program held on the Champlain College campus from July 26 - August 7, 2015, for students entering 10th, 11th or 12th grade in the fall. The program provides high school students with hands-on exploration of future careers in transportation through awareness of the complex transportation system we've come to rely on. Interactive labs, field trips and guest speakers will engage the students as they drive a big rig in the CDL simulator, visit mass transit systems, and learn how bridges are designed and created. Exploring energy, the environment and eco-friendly transportation systems gives focus to how Math, Science and English all relate to transportation careers.
