Experimental PhD in advanced digital quantum simulation

PhD opportunity in advanced digital quantum simulation

Applications are now open for a PhD scholarship with the UTS Centre for Quantum Software and Information Hardware Team in experimental quantum technologies. The successful applicant will develop innovative digitisation and control techniques for simulating the behaviour of complex quantum systems.

SCHOLARSHIP: Advanced digitisation techniques and threshold effects in experimental quantum simulators.

SCHOLARSHIP TYPE: Research Training Program (RTP)

VALUE: $28,597 per year (RTP Stipend rate, indexed annually); additional funds ($7.5k) during the course of the PhD for travel and other PhD-related expenses. 

DURATION: 3 years

ELIGIBILITY: Applicants must be either permanent Australian residents or New Zealand citizens. To be eligible for this application, you will need to hold the following qualifications in an appropriate subject area, such as physics or engineering, with strong results in your undergraduate courses:

• Honours degree with First Class or Second Class Division 1, or
• MSc Research or MSc Coursework with a research thesis of at least 6 months

Demonstrated skills in numerical modelling (e.g., in Python or Matlab), experiments, fabrication or electronics will be an advantage.
