Admissions

Interested students should formally apply to the academic unit or units of their choice within the Faculties of Engineering, Mathematics or Science, where candidates will be subject to the normal admission procedures of the home unit. A home unit must approve all quantum information applications. Using the University of Waterloo Graduate Studies online application system, students should apply directly to one of the following units:

Students who are not applying to the collaborative quantum information program at this time, but would still like to study quantum information and be a member of the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC), are encouraged to highlight their interest in quantum information and identify potential quantum information supervisors in their application to a regular program in one of the aforementioned home units.

For full scholarship consideration, please apply to an appropriate home unit by January 15. Students applying to the David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science should apply by December 15.
