The University of Glasgow has been running a Quantum Technology School (QTS) since 2018, and has been supported by QComm and QuantIC, two of the four national quantum hubs. QTS is a collaboration between the School of Physics and Astronomy, the School of Computing Science, and the School of Engineering. Quantum technology is an exciting new interdisciplinary field, which aims to use quantum mechanical effects to improve performance over existing techniques, notably in information processing, communications, sensing and imaging. It has seen recent worldwide investment from both governments and industry, and is expected to provide new employment opportunities in the medium to long term.<\/p>\n

QTS is aimed at pupils studying Physics or Computing Science at Higher or Advanced Higher at the time of the School.<\/p>\n
