Applied Quantum Computing

The Applied Quantum Computing program from University of Surrey is designed to train these professionals. The first such course in the UK dedicated to the subject, this is a truly interdisciplinary program which welcomes not just physicists and computer scientists but graduates from a range of other disciplines such as engineering and economics.

The Applied Quantum Computing program from University of Surrey is designed to enable you to explore the fundamental principles, theories and applications of quantum computing. You will also learn how these will be applied to solve scientific and commercial challenges.

Career opportunities

• You will spend a significant portion of your time in computer laboratories using packages such as Qiskit, IBM’s open-source software development kit for quantum computers.In addition to core modules, you will be able to choose from a selection of optional modules such as Advanced Topics in Computer Vision and Deep Learning, and AI and Law – enabling you to tailor your studies to suit your interests and career aspirations.
• A dissertation project will give you the opportunity to apply your new knowledge and skills to a relevant project which may be undertaken in collaboration with an industry partner.As a graduate of this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge to work in quantum computing across a range of scientific and industrial sectors such as finance, healthcare and cryptography.94 per cent of Surrey physics students have gone on to employment or further study (Graduate Outcomes 2024, HESA).
