Quantum engineers are in high demand!

Gabriele Raino, Lukas Novotny and Martin Frimmer discuss the approach they are pursuing at ETH Zürich to provide students with an education in quantum engineering in external page Nature Materials.

To study what does not exist yet:

Our future quantum engineers will be trained in an entirely new field, that is currently evolving in parallel with the technological advances in research and industry. Whereas the general direction of development can be anticipated, nobody knows in detail what exactly the future will bring, and how fast the process will develop.

ETH MSc Quantum Engineering Application

Welcome to Quantum Engineering!

On September 17, we welcomed a new batch of MSc in Quantum Engineering students. After a welcome event introducing them to the program, they attended John Preskill's Pauli lecture on “Quantum Computing and the Entanglement Frontier” and had their first chance to network with the ETH Quantum Engineering community at the apéro following the lecture.

Students' voices

Additional Information

Quantum engineering is a new field at the interface of quantum physics, electrical engineering, and IT. It exploits the laws of quantum physics to develop technologies outperforming classical engineering approaches. Quantum technologies will fundamentally change classical engineering paradigms in computing, information processing, and measurement technology.
