February 13, 2024 - Carly Bowling
Quantum research could be the key to unlocking society’s next major technological advancement and demand for the skills and expertise required for such work is sure to grow. Now, for the fourth year in a row, students in New Mexico have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the competitive field of quantum technology.
Applications are open for the fourth-annual QU-REACH program, a 10-week summer undergraduate research program run by the Center for High Tech Materials (CHTM), academic departments at UNM, the Center for Quantum Information and Control (CQuIC) and Quantum New Mexico (QNM). The program focuses on three research areas: quantum computing, quantum communications and quantum sensing.
The program will take place from May 28 to Aug. 2, and participants will receive a $7,000 stipend. A limited number of housing stipends are also available for students attending schools outside the Albuquerque metro area. Students studying STEM at any college or university in New Mexico are invited to apply. Applications are due Friday, March 1.
