The objectives remained pretty much the same as they were in our first year of MSTI except for some activities that were changed to further strengthen the program.<\/p>\n<p>Out of the 31 applicants, 10 girls and 10 boys from 8 Maine middle schools from the Greater Bangor area were selected for the non-residential 2 weeks program. The MSTI activities exposed students to different engineering careers related to transportation.\u00a0 They learned about designing highways, bridges, and airports, sustainable transportation, safety in road, air, and water, alternative fuels, construction materials, transportation of people and cargo, transportation related laws, regulations, and safety, and career opportunities.\u00a0 Students participated in hands-on lab projects, safety training, computer aided design (CAD) practice, field trips to transportation museums and facilities, and engineering labs, and recreational activities at the Student Recreation Center.\u00a0 One of the highlights we added this year was the STARBASE trip where participants got do launch flight simulations of a small plane.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Schools represented were<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Brewer Community School, Brewer<\/p>\n<p>Bucksport Middle School, Bucksport<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Lewis S.
