Quantum Technology MSc

About

Our quantum physics research seeks to transform the way we live and work. Exploration of quantum phenomena has recently led to extraordinary applications of quantum entanglement.

This course is for you if you’re interested in the wonders of quantum physics and have a desire to exploit its full potential.

You’ll benefit from the expertise in the Sussex Centre for Quantum Technologies Work in our seven research groups lies at the forefront of realising next-generation quantum technologies with powerful real-world applications. We cover:

ion-trap quantum processors
ion-photon interfaces for the projected quantum internet
quantum simulators
superconducting quantum circuits
devices for quantum-enhanced metrology
photonic devices for quantum systems.
