CQC²T Work Experience Program July 31 – August 4
This is the first of two opportunities to participate in the CQC²T Work Experience Program
31 July – 4 August 2023
Applications required.
The CQC²T Work Experience Program is a week-long opportunity for high school students who are high achievers in maths and physics. This experience is designed to introduce participants into a research-led workplace, providing an engaging experience and an introduction to what it’s really like to work at the cutting edge of research.
Our researchers will team up to provide students with informative sessions introducing quantum physics. Sessions include ‘Erbium in silicon’, ‘What noise does to qubits – mapping noise’, ‘Coding for quantum computing’ and more. Students spend much of their time in our labs, interacting with equipment and building a foundation for understanding what a career in STEM is really like.
Students will be asked to present their learnings at the end of the week. Spaces are limited, applicants will be asked to provide their CV and/or a letter of recommendation from their STEM teacher.
