Quantum Engineering & Technology (QET)

Enrollment Requirements: Undergraduate Prerequisites: ENGEK 381 and (ENGEK 125 or ENGEK 122 or CASCS 111) and (CASPY 313 or PY314 or PY351); Graduate Prerequisites: Graduate Standing This course introduces graduate students to Quantum Engineering and Technology (QET) by providing a comprehensive and rigorous discussion of the basic principles and engineering design concepts of quantum coherent structures and devices for communications, computation, simulation, metrology, and sensing. The course will provide the mathematical foundation, selected design methods, and in-depth discussions of engineering device implementations of coherent quantum systems, with emphasis on quantum optical ones. The course provides a broad yet rigorous training in quantum mechanics for engineering students interested in understanding both the technical applications and the broader societal impact of quantum principles in technology.
