About this course

Physics with Quantum Technology is a degree that combines a broad foundation in physics with a focus on one of the most rapidly developing and potentially transformative fields in modern science. Quantum mechanics describes the behaviour of matter and energy at the smallest scales, and quantum technology is the emerging discipline that harnesses quantum phenomena to build devices and systems with capabilities that classical technologies cannot match. Quantum computers, quantum sensors, quantum communication systems, and quantum imaging devices all have the potential to reshape fields from medicine and materials science to computing and environmental monitoring. At the University of Sussex, this four-year, full-time programme includes a foundation year for students who need additional preparation in physics and mathematics before beginning the main degree. The programme combines a broad
