This week, 24 graduates from the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) will cross the stage at convocation, earning their University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ graduate degrees from engineering, math and science.
After multiple years of prototyping, testing, and simulating the conditions of outer space in labs at IQC, Dr. Thomas Jennewein and members of his research group are celebrating their next big milestone — their quantum source is finished and ready to be incorporated into the Quantum Encryption and Science Satellite (QEYSSat).Â
The year-long, worldwide initiative aims to celebrate the contributions of quantum science to technological progress over the past century, raise global awareness of its importance to sustainable development in the 21st century, and ensure that all nations have access to quantum education and opportunities.
