Our quantum physics research seeks to transform the way we live and work. Exploration of quantum phenomena has recently led to extraordinary applications of quantum entanglement.

This course is for you if you are interested in the wonders of quantum physics and have a desire to exploit its full potential.

You will benefit from the expertise in the Sussex Centre for Quantum Technologies Work in our seven research groups lies at the forefront of realising next-generation quantum technologies with powerful real-world applications. We cover:

  • ion-trap quantum processors
  • ion-photon interfaces for the projected quantum internet
  • quantum simulators
  • superconducting quantum circuits
  • devices for quantum-enhanced metrology
  • photonic devices for quantum systems.

Careers

This course may be attractive to you if you aim to:

  • go on to doctoral study (theory or experiment)
  • work in a high-technology company exploiting cutting-edge technologies related to our research (this could involve development of quantum information technology, high-precision measurements and quantum metrology, and photonics/optical communications)
  • work in business/data analysis, research, computer programming, software development, or teaching.
