Ooh, lots of things.

Magnets are used everywhere. Electric motors use both permanent magnets and electromagnets made by electric current, for instance.

The most impressive and scary use for magnets in science is in Linear Accelerators like the one at the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland and France. Here, huge, scary magnets, magnets that need to be cooled with liquid helium to within 2 degrees of the coldest temperature that can exist, anywhere in the universe, control a pair of beams of tiny particles and make them travel at 299,792 km per second, or just a tiny bit slower than light itself. At that speed they make the two beams collide with each other. From what results from these collisions, they hope to find out, for instance, what makes stuff heavy, and find out more about how the universe works.
