National Science Foundation (NSF)

The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) is an independent federal agency created by Congress in 1950 "to promote the progress of science; to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare; to secure the national defense…"​ With an annual budget of more than $8 billion, NSF is the funding source for approximately 20 percent of all federally supported basic research conducted by America’s colleges and universities. In many fields, such as mathematics, computer science, and the social sciences, NSF is the major source of federal backing. NSF awards about 11,000 new awards per year, with an average duration of three years -- to fund specific research proposals that have been judged the most promising by a rigorous and objective merit-review system. In the past few decades, NSF-funded researchers have won more than 200 Nobel Prizes as well as other honors too numerous to list. NSF funds equipment that is needed by scientists and engineers but is often too expensive for any one group or researcher to afford. Another essential element in NSF's mission is support for science and engineering education, from pre-K through graduate school and beyond. There are many exciting careers at NSF, not only in science, technology, education and mathematics (STEM), but also in business and operations.

Berkeley Lab

Founded in 1931 on the belief that the biggest scientific challenges are best addressed by teams, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and its scientists have been recognized with 16 Nobel Prizes (lbl.gov/people/excellence/nobelists/). Today, Berkeley Lab researchers develop sustainable energy and environmental solutions, create useful new materials, advance the frontiers of computing, and probe the mysteries of life, matter, and the universe. Scientists from around the world rely on the Lab’s facilities for their own discovery science. Berkeley Lab is a multiprogram national laboratory, managed by the University of California for the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Science.

The Rockefeller University

Rockefeller University invented the modern bioscience institute and has spent the last 124 years perfecting it. Recognized around the world as one of the most highly regarded scientific institutions, Rockefeller draws talent from around the world in pursuit of one mission: to conduct science for the benefit of humanity. The research underway in our labs today will transform medicine tomorrow. A place of both quiet contemplation and intense scientific energy, our unique campus is the backdrop to a culture that values both independence and collaboration. We believe that diversity, equity, and inclusion benefit our mission to advance the best and brightest scientists the world has to offer. Our labs employ the latest technology to answer the toughest questions in their fields, with New York City, a burgeoning hub for biomedical translation, providing a mecca for culture and ideas outside our campus gates. Rockefeller’s culture is built on genuine dedication to promoting scientific discovery and excellence, as evidenced by our unparalleled track record of success: our scientists have won a collective 26 Nobel Prizes, 26 Lasker Awards, and 20 National Medals of Science. Rockefeller’s philosophy of investing in brilliant, innovative individuals extends to our students and postdocs, who collaborate with their mentors and receive the scientific foundation they need to succeed in academia, in industry, and in policy. We are a modern, thriving institution: Over the past 10 years we have invested over $2 billion in new facilities, scientific equipment, faculty recruitment, and research support. To work at Rockefeller is to support groundbreaking science, paving the way towards tomorrow’s discoveries. Success comes from the strength of our community, and we invite you to learn more at www.rockefeller.edu.

Argonne National Laboratory

Argonne National Laboratory, one of the U.S. Department of Energy's national laboratories for science and engineering research, employs 3,400 employees, including 1,400 scientists and engineers, three-quarters of whom hold doctoral degrees. Argonne's annual operating budget of around $1 billion supports upwards of 200 research projects. Since 1990, Argonne has worked with more than 600 companies and numerous federal agencies and other organizations. Argonne's mission is to apply a unique mix of world-class science, engineering and user facilities to deliver innovative research and technologies. We create new knowledge that addresses the most important scientific and societal needs of our nation. We actively seek opportunities to work with industry to transfer our technologies to the marketplace through licensing, joint research and many other collaborative relationships. Argonne is managed by UChicago Argonne, LLC, for the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Science. We are located on 1,500 acres (6.9 sq. km) in southwest DuPage County, Illinois 25 miles (40 km) southwest of Chicago. The site is completely encircled by the beautiful Waterfall Glen Forest Preserve.
