Delve into the forefront of scientific innovation and explore the fascinating world of quantum mechanics and its revolutionary applications.
The first of its kind in Australia, this program is built on the outstanding quantum science for which UQ is internationally renowned. It offers a unique mix of fundamental and applied physics to give you the knowledge to succeed in the coming Quantum Age.
Strengthen your technical qualifications as an engineering, computer science, chemistry or mathematics professional and gain the skills to research and develop quantum technologies capable of changing the future of communications, sensors, simulators and computing.
Develop a foundation in quantum physics theory and study advanced quantum technologies topics, such as:
- high-precision sensing
- quantum information
- communication and computation
- noise and error suppression
- quantum error correction.
Access our high-performance fabrication and measurement facilities in optical, superconducting, opto-mechanical and ultra-cold atomic systems.
This program features 3 semester-long research projects that immerse you in leading quantum science research laboratories. You'll have the opportunity to work with a variety of platforms, including superconducting devices, ultra-cold atoms, micro-mechanical systems and photonics. You'll learn from pioneers in quantum research and industry leaders who are shaping the field.
The Master of Quantum Technology also provides you with a pathway to PhD study in quantum science.
