Who We Are
The Office of Workforce Development and Science Education prepares the next generation of scientists, engineers, technicians, and teachers utilizing the unique scientific tools and intellectual resources of Brookhaven National Laboratory.
What We Do
The Office of Workforce Development and Science Education serves students and teachers at all levels.
We provide opportunities to drive excitement for K-12 students and educators in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) by exploring Brookhaven Lab’s research initiatives.
The undergraduate and graduate internship programs provide more than 350 students and professors from universities around the country each year the opportunity for an authentic research experience. Interns have access to the Lab’s facilities and leading scientists in their fields to take on scientific challenges and gain experience working in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics fields.
Opportunities for college faculty are available to collaborate on research projects with scientists utilizing unique capabilities that are generally not available at academic institutions. The experience allows faculty to maintain research competitiveness for themselves, their students and the research institutions.
