Quantum Optics – Learn the Physics Behind Tomorrow’s Technologies

Lasers, photonics, quantum sensors, quantum communication — want to understand the physics behind them?

Optics is a key technology in today’s high-tech industry, from telecommunications and semiconductor manufacturing to medical technology and precision sensing. And with the rise of quantum technologies, the ability to understand and control light and matter at the level of individual photons and atoms is becoming increasingly valuable.

The Quantum Optics course gives you the theoretical foundations and essential tools to understand these technologies — and a starting point for further studies, research, or a career in the rapidly growing fields of photonics and quantum technology.

Course format

• 2 hours of lectures per week
• 1 hour of problem-solving per week
• Oral exam at the end of the semester

Discover how photons and atoms behave in the quantum world — and gain knowledge that is increasingly sought after in both research and high-tech industry.
