PhD

The quantum information science group of Animesh Datta at the University of Warwick is offering two PhD projects for October 2018. They are:
1. From quantum supremacy to quantum simulations
2. Mechanisms of energy transport in photosynthesis

See www.warwick.ac.uk/qinfo/join/ for details of the projects and application instructions.

International students with exceptional records must contact Animesh Datta before January 15, 2018 for scholarship options.

Online Applications are invited for the admission to the Ph.D. Programme starting in the Spring Semester (January session) of the Academic Year 2017-18. Admissions are offered in the Department of Physics, IIT Dharwad, Karnataka, India.

A fully funded PhD position is available to work within the Quantum Technology group at Queen's University Belfast (QTeQ). Applications are open and available at the portal
