Quantum technologies such as computing, metrology and communications have the potential to vastly change our world, as they push us towards the Quantum Age. By exploiting quantum phenomena, society-changing technologies such as unbreakable cryptography or exponentially faster computers are poised to become a reality. Recently, many of these technologies have matured to the point that a commercial quantum industry is emerging. This has been met with huge investments from government and industry, both domestically and internationally.The coming Quantum Age will require a technically-skilled workforce to serve the needs of this new and rapidly evolving industry. There will also be an increased demand for knowledge of the field within government, defence, finance, professional services and related sectors. This program equips you with the required skills and knowledge of the scientific, technical, business and societal aspects of quantum technology to be highly competitive in the emerging quantum industries of the present day and of the future.This Advanced program incorporates a research project and thesis.Learning Outcomes demonstrate high level knowledge of quantum technologies; apply their knowledge of quantum technology to new problems; interpret, synthesize and critically analyse published literature of relevance to quantum technology; demonstrate theoretical and practical skills relevant to techniques and research methodology in quantum technology; critically analyse data within quantum technologies to reach independent conclusions independently perform experimental or theoretical work, interpret and analyse results, write reports and collate data into a thesis; demonstrate a critical understanding of science in society; clearly communicate theory and results in both written and oral formats

For international students

Applicants must present a Bachelor degree or international equivalentwith a minimum GPA of at least 5.5/7.0with at least 8 courses in a cognate discipline, which must also have a minimum GPA of 5.5/7.0.The GPA requirement for this program must be met by both the program as a whole, as well as by the 8 courses in a cognate discipline. Where more than 8 cognate courses have been completed by the applicant, ANU will take the best 8 courses when assessing the cognate GPA.The GPA for a Bachelor program will be calculated from (i) a completed Bachelor degree using all grades and/or (ii) a completed Bachelor degree using all grades other than those from the last semester (or equivalent study period) of the Bachelor degree.
