Explore Nuclear Science and Engineering
INL has nearly 70 years of experience in nuclear reactor plant design, operations and decommissioning, and nuclear materials processing. The lab’s expertise is routinely sought by national and international customers. These standout capabilities are key to supporting DOE’s Light Water Reactor Sustainability and Gateway for Accelerated Innovation in Nuclear (GAIN) programs. All INL nuclear operations are based on a long tradition of safe and cost-effective operations.

National Security Research and Testing
The laboratory’s signature capabilities, expertise and unique infrastructure assets support efforts to secure industrial control systems from cyber and physical threats, develop advanced nuclear facility safeguards, and design advanced wireless sensors and protocols. INL’s 890-square-mile infrastructure test range and co-located laboratories provide an ideal backdrop for conducting significant national security demonstrations and experiments.
STEM HELP WANTED
Energy and Environmental Sustainability
Scientists and engineers are exploring solutions to grand challenges in the areas of clean energy development, competing water resource management, and carbon life-cycle options in order to get the right type of energy to the right place at the right time. INL researchers are configuring and testing hybrid energy systems to increase the range of beneficial energy options, and to demonstrate that renewable, fossil and nuclear energy systems can be successfully and effectively integrated for greater efficiencies.

Outreach Activity Ideas
INL STEM Ambassadors
Our STEM Ambassadors bring their vast science, technology, engineering and math experience to students across the state. Our website provides a portal for INL employees to get engaged and helps our team pair STEM mentors and volunteers with students and events for the most impact. STEM Ambassadors can serve as judges, mentors, speakers and more.
Employee Outreach Self-Reporting Survey
INL encourages staff to get involved in STEM education outreach—in their children’s schools, through community events, and more. In an effort to accurately track employee engagement efforts, INL’s K-12 Education Enrichment program is interested in knowing when employees participate in STEM activities.
If you are working with a school, community group or other STEM effort, please let the team know by completing this survey, once for each event.
Outreach Activity Ideas
We have a library of helpful resources that can guide you to effective outreach and provide ideas for activities.
