All activities that form part of this course will be delivered remotely in Sem 2 2020.
In this course, students focus on one aspect of quantum technology and gain specialist knowledge and skills under the supervision of a research or industry expert. For example, students may learn how to design, simulate, operate and/ or characterise a chosen quantum technology. Alternatively, students may investigate economic, security and/ or public policy implications of a chosen quantum technology. The course will typically involve a series of readings, technical instruction and problem solving tasks specified by a supervisor. Student learning will be assessed via a major report, learning logbook and performance, and a presentation. Students are to identify and engage a supervisor to tailor a learning plan to their interests and future research or industry aspirations. Students may complete this course multiple times as long as each instance is on a different aspect of quantum technology.

- Investigate the key principles, concepts and applications of specific quantum technologies;
