Even though scientists often work in a lab, many science-based careers require researching and experimenting in outdoor environments.

Where do scientists usually work?

A scientist can be found almost anywhere: universities, government facilities, company labs, for-profit companies, in space, on ships, underground, in hospitals, in private practice and in forests. Pretty much anywhere in the world, and in any industry, there are scientists working in their particular field.
