As Argonne Research Aides, college and university students work alongside scientific and engineering staff, providing technical assistance. Rather than designing their own research programs, students are assigned specific technical tasks. As temporary employees, students earn a salary and are expected to possess the skills required to do the assigned task when they arrive. Understanding the scientific basis for the work is generally not emphasized. Unlike research internships, research aide appointments are considered jobs. The laboratory offers a variety of Research Aide positions ranging from long-term to short-term appointments, with both part-time and full-time options.
Stipend: Financial support, consisting of travel, housing, and a per diem payment, may be provided to help defray the cost of visiting Argonne.
18 years or older at the time the appointment begins. Cumulative minimum grade point average 2.8 on a 4.0 scale. Must be currently enrolled full-time at an accredited institution and have completed at least one semester of schooling by the start of the program. School Verification form. Two (2) letters of recommendation. Satisfactory background check. Pass a screening drug test.
