The Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) at the University of Waterloo hosted its first Youth Quantum Symposium earlier this year, connecting keen minds with researchers and fostering their interest in quantum information science.
Five Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) faculty receive funding through Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada’s Discovery Research program.
Inspired by the late Dr. Ray Laflamme, founding executive director of IQC, a group of young quantum researchers look beyond how quantum science and technology will impact society. They are asking: “How will it be used responsibly?”
Institute for Quantum Computing and Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics PhD student explores cases where quantum information loss can be reversed, taking inspiration from image generation models like DALL-E or SORA.
The Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) congratulates the 22 graduates who received their University of Waterloo degrees from the Faculties of Engineering, Mathematics and Science at Spring Convocation 2026.
Professor of computer science Gilles Brassard, at the Université de Montréal, is one of the pioneers of quantum information science. On June 17, as part of this spring’s convocation proceedings, the Faculty of Mathematics awarded him a Doctor of Mathematics, honoris causa.
