Due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and restricted travel,Ìý°×С½ãÂÛ̳Q'sÌýQuantum Tech Summer School will be hosted online.ÌýAimed at undergraduates with a background in engineering and computer science (but also open to those studying Natural Sciences), the summer school will provide a comprehensive introduction to the exciting field of quantum technologies, including quantum computing and quantum communication.

Aimed at undergraduates with a background in engineering and computer science (but also open to those studying Natural Sciences), the summer school will provide a comprehensive introduction to the exciting field of quantum technologies, including quantum computing and quantum communication.

For a week in early September students will have the opportunity to attend lectures from leading experts, including:

• Fundamentals of quantum mechanics
• Quantum computing and qubits
• Quantum algorithms and quantum computing architectures
• Quantum cryptography and quantum communication
• Key technology platforms for quantum computers

Students will also have the chance to work hands-on in quantum technologies, including fabricating nanoscale devices and programming current-generation quantum processors. Additionally, students will be able to meet with °×С½ãÂÛ̳Q staff and students and have the opportunity to take part in smaller tutorials in quantum information and quantum technologies.

The °×С½ãÂÛ̳Q Quantum Tech Summer School will run from Monday 6ÌýSeptember to Friday 10ÌýSeptember 2021.

Course fees will be fully covered by a grant fromÌýEPSRC. Successful applications will also be guaranteed accommodation near °×С½ãÂÛ̳ for the duration of the Summer School.ÌýApply for our summer school.
