Argonne National Laboratory Open House 2023

Argonne National Laboratory, located just 25 miles west of Chicago, is one of the world’s leading scientific research laboratories. And for one day only, it’s open to the public.

Registration is required to attend.

Experience a full day of tours and activities celebrating four major areas in which Argonne has an impact: saving our planet, improving public and personal health, understanding our universe, and creating new tools of science.

Explore the lab’s campus in specially designed tours that offer a rare sneak peek into our world-class scientific facilities — and engage with the science that is shaping our future.

Meet accomplished scientists and learn how they are developing batteries that will power the next generation of electric vehicles, discovering new ways to stop future pandemics like COVID-19, detecting new particles, and designing clean energy solutions that protect our planet from climate change.

Want to know more about the ins and outs of research? Geek out and spend the day immersed in the process of discovery — surrounded by the people who do it every day. There will be activities covering all of the lab’s research areas: physics, chemistry, computer science, quantum science, biology, materials science, engineering, environmental science — plus much more!

Want to work at Argonne? The Open House is a great opportunity to see what it’s like and find out about science and technology positions, internships, as well as the other types of jobs at the lab.
