Here are more details about our Quantum Tech MSc programme in an and a virtual (with Q & A).
Progress in quantum technologies is at an exciting stage. Applications that harness the non-classical features of quantum mechanics to perform tasks hard or impossible with conventional technologies are now reaching beyond the laboratory into industrial development. Some of these, such as quantum cryptography and communication have already arrived in the marketplace, while others – such as quantum computation – remain a significant technological challenge, but all have the potential to bring revolutionary advances compared to their classical counterparts.
At ʼһ, you will be taught by world-leading experts in quantum technologies and have access to extensive extra-curricular activities such as seminars and workshops in the topic. UCL has a dedicated center to Quantum Technologies, theUCLQ Quantum Science and Technology Institute.

Below is an excerpt of anby our 2020 alumnus Daniel Goldsmith withthe:
"I needed some additional skills in quantum technology and I was very fortunate to be accepted and to complete an MSc in Quantum Technology at ʼһ, and that was really, really excellent and it gave me quite a good basic understanding across a wide range of quantum topics. But there were some rungs in the ladder, kind of, missing between myself working as an IT team lead and starting the Masters in Quantum Technology. And these were very important. The first is a professor at ʼһ. calledCarla Figueira De Morisson Faria, organized “quantum battles”. I mean, who wouldn’t want to go to something called quantum battles, which is a series of presentations and discussions? And she delivered these online and it was over three days in July last year. So, I approached her and she very kindly let me join in, and that was really good because even though I didn’t understand most of what was being said, I found I did actually understand some of it. And the other thing was I went to a lecture by theat the Royal Society. I wanted to see what a real working physicist was like. And the third thing that was really important for me was some excellent. And I watched them and again, I found them quite approachable. I won’t say I understood everything but because I had those three experiences I found that actually I could listen to a lecture on quantum and understand probably quite a lot of the salient points. That really encouraged me to apply for the MSc in Quantum Technology at ʼһ."
