The Mineta Summer Transportation Academy (formerly known as the Mineta Summer Transportation Institute) invites Bay Area high school students (grades 9-12) to learn about transportation careers in a free, three-week on-campus session at San Jose State University. Regardless of their initial interest in transportation, students will be excited about getting an inside look at businesses impacting the day-to-day activities of hundreds of thousands of people. A series of comprehensive, fun projects, academic lectures, and eye-opening field trips to local business and transit agencies exposes students to the principles of transportation systems. An introduction to university life and key concepts related to transportation development, construction, business management, technology, intermodal systems, and environmental impact encourages students to pursue college degrees that prepare them for transportation careers. |
