Quantum physicist Christine Muschik was named a 2022 University Research Chair at the last University Senate meeting.
The University Research Chair award recognizes exceptional achievement and pre-eminence in a particular field of knowledge. Recipients can choose to receive an annual stipend or teaching reduction of one course per year.
The Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) at the University of Waterloo is proud to announce our membership in the Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada 50 – 30 Challenge. The 50 – 30 Challenge is a program between the Government of Canada, businesses and diversity organizations with a goal to achieve both gender parity and increased presence of underrepresented groups on boards and in senior levels of management.
On February 11, the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) and its partners worldwide will celebrate the International Day of Women and Girls in Science. Each year we look at IQC’s role in what we at IQC are doing to inspire more girls and women to study and work in STEM and quantum information. And although the needle is moving, we still have a lot more work to do.
