    In the new undergraduate engineering sequence in quantum engineering, students learn the foundations of the quantum computing “stack” before creating their own quantum engineered systems in the lab.

    Dirk Englund, Associate Professor in EECS, has been part of a team of instructors developing the quantum course sequence.

    Researchers at MIT have recently signed a 4-year collaboration agreement with the Novo Nordisk Foundation Quantum Computing Programme (NQCP) at Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, focused on accelerating quantum computing hardware research.

    Ranking at the top for the 13th year in a row, the Institute also places first in 11 subject areas.

    Adam Belay, Manya Ghobadi, Stefanie Mueller, and Julian Shun are all being promoted to associate professor with tenure.

    The Institute also ranks second in five subject areas.
