Quantum mechanics is the theory that explains the behaviour of the microscopic world such as atoms and photons. Over the last 100 years, this theory has been remarkably successful in describing the world at microscopic scales. It is now well accepted that being able to control quantum systems allows us to exploit many physical properties, such as superposition. This ability to control systems will revolutionise the way we communicate, process and store information as well as help us to develop new technologies. These emerging technologies are known as quantum technology.
This M.Sc. focuses on the theoretical and software aspects of this technology. Specifically, it focuses on a unique blend of quantum information science, the physics of quantum hardware and quantum materials. It will also enable you to develop key skills in the area, such as how to write programs for quantum computers and to network with like-minded students who are interested in pursuing further studies in this area.
Lecturers from multinationals involved in research and development, small and medium enterprises, and the blossoming quantum startup space, will give talks throughout the year. This will enable students to understand the challenges that face the quantum industry today.
