Science Programs are performed at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education (ORISE), and Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (Jefferson Lab). At ORNL, researchers focus on basic and applied research to advance the nation's energy resources, environmental quality, scientific knowledge, and contribute to science education and national economic competitiveness. The Laboratory also performs work for non-DOE sponsors when such activities complement DOE missions and address important national or international issues. ORNL is operated by UT-Battelle LLC. ORISE is managed for DOE by the Oak Ridge Associated Universities, a not-for-profit consortium of 86 colleges and universities. ORISE carries out national and international programs in science and engineering education, training and management systems, energy and environmental systems, medical sciences, and low energy physics. Jefferson Lab accelerates electrons for use as a probe to study the structure of matter. Jefferson Lab is operated by Jefferson Science Associates LLC. Additionally, Oak Ridge supports 10 Science laboratories and facilities at DOE sites throughout the United States.
