With these graduates, our university created for the first time highly specialized professionals for one of the world&#8217;s most dynamic fields of innovation in recent times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-ovl-heading\" data-accent=\"true\" data-tag=\"h2\" data-style-level=\"h4\">Ready for research and high-tech industries<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The practice-oriented, international Master&#8217;s program Quantum Engineering, held fully in English, provides students with a solid theoretical foundation in mathematics, quantum information, and quantum computing, as well as expertise in algorithms, hardware-related development, and practical projects with industry and research partners. Laboratory exercises using state-of-the-art experimental setups on topics in quantum physics specifically prepare students for careers in research, development, and high-tech startups.<br><br>The demand for qualified quantum experts is rising and will increase rapidly over the next few years. In sectors such as telecommunications, finance, energy, medical technology, and automotive, secure quantum communication, higher sensitivity of quantum-based sensors, and precision measurements are in greater demand than ever. UAS Technikum Wien plans to further expand its offerings in quantum technologies and deepen collaborations in Vienna and beyond to give students access to cutting-edge infrastructure, real-world applications and embeds them into a professional network.<br><br>\u201cThe first two graduates represent not only a personal success for themselves, but also an important boost for Austria as a quantum technology hub within the university of applied sciences sector\u201d, says Program Director <strong>Hermann Detz<\/strong>.
