Short Description
Quantum mechanics determines our understanding of physical processes on a microscopic scale. More than a century after ground-breaking work began on quantum mechanics, technical developments based on this phenomenon – such as transistors, lasers and global satellite navigation systems – have long since become part of our everyday lives. On the verge of the second quantum revolution, the aim is now to pave the way for the application of fundamental quantum physics in industrial fields. In this context, the combination of knowledge and skills from the fields of physics, mathematics, computer science and engineering plays a crucial role. The degree programme closes a gap that previous degree programmes were unable to fill.
The programme primarily teaches students knowledge in all four pillars of quantum technologies: communication, simulation, sensors and computation. Once they have completed the programme, students will be able to use their technological expertise in individual specific fields of application to transfer quantum technology solutions from the basic research laboratory to practice.
The degree programme is offered in cooperation with the Technische Universität Braunschweig. The imported teaching may require students to attend courses in Braunschweig in addition to their regular courses at Leibniz University in Hanover and a hybrid offer.
