M.Tech on Quantum Science and Technology

The M.Tech in Quantum Science and Technology (QuST) is envisaged as an Inter Disciplinary program, to cater to the growing need of manpower development in the nation. The National Mission on Quantum Technology and Applications requires a trained workforce that specializes on the different aspects of frontier subjects such as

• Quantum information and algorithms

• Quantum communication

• Quantum computing

• Quantum and post quantum cryptography

• Quantum machine learning

• Quantum sensing

Qualification and experience :

(a) Bachelor’s degree in Engineering/Technology/Architecture or equivalent or professional qualification like AMIE or any other Associate membership as specified in the M.Tech. Admission Brochure with first class or 60% of aggregate marks over the 4 years (55% in the case of SC/ST candidates) or

(b) Degrees obtained through distance education/correspondence mode, the Departments will follow interview procedure for screening in such cases.

(c) Two years professional experience as on 30.04.2021 in the sponsoring Institution after qualifying degree.

The M.Tech in QuST will align itself to the existing Interdisciplinary Dual Degree Program on QuST, and consists of

• Total Credits: 190

• Core credits: 48

• Elective Credits: 57

• M.Tech Project: 85
