Description

This module is an optional module aimed at students in the MRes in Quantum Technologies who will select a theoretical project. The aim of the course is to teach students advanced mathematical techniques in theoretical physics and computer science which underpin quantum technologies. Students will attend 3 strands, each of which delivered by a different academic

The course will be research-driven, and its content based on the active research within the academic鈥檚 research. The topics covered will cycle from year to year, allowing students within the PhD phase to audit courses that they are interested in, and allowing all research academics to showcase their research techniques. Examples of topics will include: advanced quantum information theory, quantum optics, superconductivity theory, complexity theory, quantum error correction, many-body quantum physics.
