Quantum technologies are transforming how we understand and interact with the world. Bringing together ideas and approaches from quantum physics, computing, engineering and information science, this programme explores the rapidly evolving landscape of quantum technologies and how fundamental quantum phenomena can be harnessed to develop transformative technologies for the future.
You learn the language and techniques of advanced quantum mechanics, quantum information theory and quantum computation, as well as state-of-the-art implementation with condensed matter and quantum optical systems.
The Quantum Technologies MSc is for students with a strong background in quantum theory who wish to develop their knowledge and skills in the rapidly evolving field of quantum technologies. It will be suitable for graduates in physics and related disciplines, including mathematics, engineering and computer science, who can demonstrate proficiency in quantum theory.
The course prepares graduates for careers in the emerging quantum technology industries which play an increasingly important role in: secure communication; sensing and metrology; the simulation of other quantum systems; and ultimately in general-purpose quantum computation. Graduates will also be well prepared for research at the highest level in the numerous groups now developing quantum technologies and for work in government laboratories.
Graduates from this course progress into a wide range of sectors, including IT, technology and telecoms, manufacturing, consultancy, scientific research and financial services. Employers have included Thales, Afra Software and MCD Capital. Graduate Outcomes survey carried out by the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA), looking at the destinations of graduates in the 2018–2024 cohorts.
Graduates will possess the skills needed to work in the emerging quantum industries as they develop in response to technological advances.
UCL offers one of the leading research courses in quantum technologies anywhere in the world, as well as outstanding taught courses in the subjects contributing to the field including physics, computer science, and engineering. It also hosts the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Quantum Computation and Quantum Communications.
