Interested in the intriguing possibilities of the quantum world? This Master’s programme offers you a general physics education with particular focus on the rapidly developing field of quantum science, from both a theoretical and experimental perspective.
Understanding quantum theory provides fundamental insights into both the physical world and the fact that quantum systems can be used to manipulate information processing in ways that have no counterpart in classical physics and conventional technology.
You will study quantum theory as well as the role of physics in information and its connections to major quantum technologies such as quantum computing, quantum communication, and quantum simulation.
In addition to quantum mechanics, you will also have the opportunity to learn about the quantum theory of light and the theoretical aspects of information carried by quantum systems. Within the Master’s programme, you can also study lasers and the physics of several key areas in quantum technology, such as superconductors, nanostructures, and atoms.
The programme has strong links to research at Lund University, with close connections to the many research groups working in quantum science and technology. This research spans everything from the foundations of quantum theory to advanced experiments at Lund Laser Lab and Lund Nano Lab.
