Graduate Specialisation Program in Quantum Computing

Quantum computing emerged in the 1980s with new paradigms for computing and transmitting information transmission, both with the potential to revolutionize the most diverse areas of society. Currently, with the imminent realization of innovative quantum technologies on a large scale, there is a massive interest on the part of several organizations worldwide, in particular the multinationals in the area of ??information technology, to invest heavily in the preparation of specialized staff, able to deal with the new methods and techniques present in these technologies.

In view of its interdisciplinary character, the specialization Program in Quantum Computing aims to open new horizons of work, preparing the student for activities involving quantum information, problems of information coding and cryptography as well as the specification and logical verification of systems. It will also provide a starting point for students who want to start or continue their training and research path (e.g. in master's and doctoral projects) in a rapidly expanding research area.
