Academics
M.Tech. in Quantum Technologies
About
Quantum technology is an emerging field of physics and engineering, which relies on the principles of quantum physics. It is about creating practical applications such as quantum computing, quantum sensors, quanutm cryptography, quantum simulation, quantum metrology, and quantum imaging based on properties of quantum mechanics. The idea of starting a quantum technology program is keeping in mind India’s need for high-quality human resources. It will be one of the world’s leading academic organizations engaged in quantum technologies.
