The purpose of the Undergraduate Transportation Scholars Program is to promote interest in transportation research among undergraduate students. In this program, selected undergraduate students from across the U.S. will spend a portion of the summer working on a research project and learning about the transportation research program at Texas A&M University and the Texas Transportation Institute. During the summer program, undergraduate students will be responsible for preparing a work plan to accomplish a research objective, conducting the plan, and reporting the results. Students will work directly with a TAMU faculty member or TTI full-time researcher during their assignment. Students will also meet with selected current graduate students to gain additional insight into the Texas A&M programs. The program will emphasize the development of, or contribution to, journal papers as a product of the summer program. The following links provide more details about specific aspects of this program:
