The Year of Quantum Science // find out about all the activities
Quantum physics has transformed our view of the world and laid the foundations for the technologies that shape our everyday lives. To mark the United Nations’ International Year of Quantum Sciences and Technologies, the Geneva Quantum Centre (GQC) invites you to discover the quantum phenomena that surround us, and to explore current research and tomorrow’s innovations through a series of events.

2025 International Year of Quantum Science and Technology
The United Nations proclaimed 2025 the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology. This marks the 100 years since the initial development of quantum mechanics. At UNIGE, the GQC will celebrate this International Year with a series of initiatives to share and discuss the latest quantum developments.
Student Visits at the GQC
The GQC is always happy to welcome the next generation of quantum scientists to our labs. Recently, we were visited by Kira and Leyla, high school students from Stowe School in the UK.

Education //

At the Master level, the GQC will support interdisciplinary master programs, with curriculum that combine lectures in quantum information and communications, quantum materials and quantum computation. Members of the GQC contributing to this master programs span both theoretical and experimental aspects relevant for developing successful quantum technologies.
At the doctoral level, GQC will support courses given by international experts and schools, possibly co-organized with the Quantum centres at EPFL Lausanne and ETH Zurich. A long-term goal is to build stronger connections between these major institutions in Switzerland, both to trigger students exchange and interest, and to develop collaborations among research groups.
