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.

At TU/e, we develop quantum technologies that create possibilities beyond classical counterparts in computation, communication, and sensing, while also advancing quantum materials and exploring fundamental quantum physics. Research within the track combines applied and theoretical work in quantum physics and information, coding theory, and quantum cryptography with experimental breakthroughs in quantum materials, sensing, and photonic devices, culminating in the development of full-stack scalable quantum computers based on neutral Rydberg atoms.
This master's programme is a joint degree offered by four Dutch universities of applied sciences: Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences, Fontys University of Applied Sciences, Saxion University of Applied Sciences and The Hague University of Applied Sciences.Each partner university brings its own area of expertise within quantum technology. To fully participate, you’ll need to travel between the different locations.
The minor Quantum Safe Cryptography works with the technology of the future: quantum computers. The minor focuses on developing both the hardware and the software skills of students in a multidisciplinary environment. The software side of the track will focus on fundamental principles of cryptography, where you learn how to encrypt and decrypt data in a safe way. One of the major topics here is post-quantum cryptography. The hardware side of QSC will be explored through the field of quantum key cryptography.
As an applied physicist, you explore how the world works, uncovering patterns in nature and turning them into technological innovations. The Bachelor’s in Applied Physics introduces you to the surprising properties of light, sound, heat, flow, and particles, and challenges you with questions like:What can you do with magnetism?How does lightning form?How can lasers be applied?The program equips you with the knowledge, analytical skills, and problem-solving mindset needed to become a successful physics engineer.
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.
