Career Opportunities
Looking for a job that’s “out of this world?” One where you can “reach for the stars?” Or where you can make endless space puns without fear of ridicule? If this sounds like you, and you’re passionate about STEAM, community outreach, education, and working in a welcoming environment, this might be the place for you!
Consider joining our dynamic team on Chicago’s Museum Campus as we work to fulfill our mission of connecting people to the universe and each other under the sky we all share.
Our employees are cheerleaders for science and technology, megaphones for their incredible colleagues, and advocates for science literacy. They shout about the museum’s exhibitions, programs, sky shows, collections, special events, and active research projects. All of this in service of inspiring exploration of that mind-blowing thing we call our universe.
