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.

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.
