About

An interdisciplinary Summer School on Quantum Information Theory will take place at Saarland University. It is aimed at advanced undergraduate (Bachelor’s) students in mathematics, computer science, and physics interested in research at the intersection of these disciplines.

Quantum Information Theory combines mathematical tools, information‑theoretic concepts, and principles of Quantum Mechanics and forms the basis of developments such as Quantum Computing. The summer school provides a structured and accessible introduction to this rapidly evolving field through mini‑lectures, social activities, and career panels.

The summer school is organised in partnership with Transform4Europe (T4EU). Therefore, up to 15 of the 50 available spots are reserved for students from universities that are part of the T4EU Alliance.

Moreover participants from T4EU Alliance universities will receive travel support of up to 200 EUR.

Further information on the process, accommodation and cost coverage can be found on the following website: https://www.uni-saarland.de/summer-school-qit.html.

You can register at https://forms.office.com/e/mv9JRV25TY. The deadline is 31 October 2026.

Please note that all applicants from outside Saarland University must provide a short letter of recommendation. This means a senior researcher, such as a professor or a postdoc send a letter of recommendation to metzinger(at)math.uni-sb.de by the deadline 31 October 2026.

After registering, you will receive a brief confirmation within two weeks. This confirmation means not that your funding has been approved.
