UCLQ Summer School Returns
31 March 2022
For a week in July undergraduates can attend UCLQ for an introduction to the exciting field of quantum technologies.
UCLQ's Quantum Tech Summer School will be hosted on-site and in-person again this year!
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.
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 July 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 UCLQ staff and students and have the opportunity to take part in smaller tutorials in quantum information and quantum technologies.
The UCLQ Quantum Tech Summer School will run from Monday 4 July to Friday 8 July 2022.
Course fees and accommodation will be fully covered by a grant from EPSRC. Successful applications will be guaranteed accommodation near UCL for the duration of the Summer School. We also have a small travel bursary available.
