Building Canada's and the world's quantum workforce

The world is on the brink of another information technology revolution, this time driven by emerging quantum technologies. It will take a highly skilled workforce to discover innovative applications for quantum technologies that will transform the way we live, work and play. The Quantum Information Graduate Program at the University of Waterloo prepares students and our alumni not only to participate in this quantum revolution, but to lead it.
