Mission & Goals
Quantum technologies will have a transformative impact on our world by exploiting quantum-mechanical effects to realize novel technological applications. These include, for example,
- ultra-secure quantum communication where the security is guaranteed by physical principles,
- quantum computing, which can solve certain computational problems orders of magnitude faster than classical computers,
- or sensors with unprecedented sensitivity.
Bringing these technologies to life requires engineering on multiple levels, including the engineering of novel materials, quantum hardware, quantum software, and quantum systems. At the TUM School of Computation Information and Technology, these topics are addressed via interdisciplinary cooperations spanning the Departments of Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, and Mathematics.
