Course Description

Course Profile

Quantum Information Technology (QIT) is an innovative and rapidly developing global field of study, focusing on the microscopic quantum world that can enable new technologies, including: unbreakable cryptography, ultraprecision measurements, quantum computers.

Such developing technologies have the potential to revolutionise the modern world: from mobile phones to medicine, chemistry, and finance.

Quantum Information Technology Master’s programme in a nutshell:

  • Introductory courses on Quantum Mechanics and its mathematical formalism.
  • Courses on broad areas of quantum expertise: Quantum Cryptography, Signatures of Non-Classicality, Quantum Computing
  • Courses addressing specific concepts and architectures, like Superconducting Qubits, Quantum Optics, Advanced Topics in Quantum Foundations, among others.
  • Research and Master projects conducted in cooperation with active researchers and experts of international reputation
  • (both from Faculty of Mathematics, Physics and Informatics and International Centre for Theory of Quantum Technologies, UG).
  • Studying in an international interdisciplinary environment
  • Developing a comprehensive set of skills regarding presentation, use of the English, and knowledge on commercialisation and start-up companies

 

Job prospects:

  • industrial and service companies that

-conduct R&D activities on the design and implementation of quantum technologies,

-implement quantum solutions, for example in secure communication and computing

  • continue doctoral studies on quantum information technologies and its interdisciplinary fields at universities and research centers (e.g.: ICTQT, UG)
