Addressing the fundamental challenges to the development of the quantum computer.

About CIQC

Our multidisciplinary team of mathematicians, computer scientists, physicists, chemists and electrical engineers address the fundamental challenges to the development of the quantum computer. While our theorists invent new quantum algorithms and optimize them, our experimentalists build and develop novel hardware supporting these applications. To increase impact, CIQC partners with the Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing and the Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics.

A major focus of CIQC is to support graduate students and postdoctoral scholars in their growth as independent scientists, and to develop the future workforce for the quantum industry with a Masters of Quantum Science and Technology.
