This strong network of professionals and peers opens doors to valuable career opportunities, ensuring that emerging talent is well-prepared to thrive in a competitive job market.
We support higher education by developing and enriching quantum-focused courses and programs. Highlights include Introduction to Quantum Computing for first- and second-year bachelor students, hybrid versions of the Quantum Computing Minor, and guidance for internships. These initiatives help students build a strong foundation in quantum technology early in their studies.
Embedded in the HvA Bachelor’s Applied Physics program, this thematic semester on Quantum Technology fosters interdisciplinary collaboration. Students team up with peers from diverse programs, like Biomedical Engineering and Electrical Engineering, to execute specialized projects. Initially, these projects, sourced from scientific institutes and businesses, will undergo fine-tuning and attentive mentoring.
In partnership with TU Delft and Leiden University, we're designing a special school day for pre-university students, offering a deep dive into Quantum Technology. Whether hosted at HvA or local high schools, participants will explore Quantum's historical, practical, and societal layers, with opportunities for further study.
We design workshops and courses tailored to professionals who want to expand their knowledge of quantum technology. Examples such as the General Awareness Workshop and Quantum Computing for Quants translate complex topics into practical insights, making quantum concepts relevant for business and industry.
On the 7th of November the Quantum TLCs in Amsterdam, Delft/Leiden, Eindhoven and Twente hosted the National Opening Quantum Talent & Learning Centres. During this quantum-filled afternoon in Amsterdam, we discussed the recent developments in quantum education including the TLC’s joint effort to improve and initiate education in Quantum technology and make the Netherlands a frontrunner in the field.
MASTER APPLIED QUANTUM TECHNOLOGIES
Quantum technology is developing fast — from computers that are much more powerful than today’s, to ultra-secure communication and highly sensitive sensors. These technologies will help solve complex challenges, such as developing new medicines or improving cybersecurity. The Master in Applied Quantum Technology prepares you to work in this exciting new field. The programme combines knowledge of quantum software, photonics and electronics, and focuses on skills you can use in practice.
Since its inception in the 1980s, quantum computing has seen great development. The hope of speeding up computation makes this field the next potential technological revolution. The field needs a new generation of passionate scientists willing to work at the frontier of physics, computer science and mathematics. Will you be one of them?
The Applied Quantum Computing minor builds on the 'Introduction to Quantum Computing' bootcamp, using blended learning to reach students worldwide.
The 3.5-hour workshop offers a practical introduction to quantum computing, covering potential opportunities, cybersecurity risks, and the timeline for quantum computer availability.
This course introduces quantitative analysts in the financial sector to the fundamentals of quantum computing, with no prior background required. Over four sessions, participants explore algorithms for Monte Carlo simulations, option pricing, portfolio optimization, and quantum machine learning, connecting quantum methods directly to financial applications
TLC Amsterdam’s team is comprised of experienced professionals and innovative thinkers who merge academic insights with real-world industry expertise. Their collaborative approach drives each project forward with a passion for digital transformation and excellence.
