• Semester 1 : Lectures and Practicum Courses (30 ECTS).
• Semester 2 : Internship in France or abroad (30 ECTS).

Note:  The students will have to choose between different optical courses in the first semester

PSL’s quantum engineering programme is a 2-year program that provides cutting-edge training. It is spread over two years and 120 ECTS, requesting full-time studies. 

Quantum technologies are a strategic global topic for academia and industry. These disruptive technologies have the potential to revolutionise the design and implementation of information and communication sciences and technologies. France is investing nearly €2 billion in this field over the next four years.

A new interdisciplinary training programme in quantum technologies has been launched by PSL University in September 2022. It results from an unprecedented synergy between some of its founding schools, namely: Ecole normale supérieure, ESPCI Paris, Mines Paris, École nationale supérieure de Chimie de Paris - PSL and the Observatoire de Paris, and it is part of PSL’s graduate programme in physics.

The academic year is divided into two semesters.

• Semester 1: Courses and Practicums (30 ECTS).
• Semester 2 : Internship : France or abroad (30 ECTS).

• Semester 1 : Lectures and Practicum Courses (30 ECTS).
• Semester 2 : Internship in France or abroad (30 ECTS).

Note: All courses are mandatory.

The second year is organized into four tracks: Condensed matter physics, Soft matter and biological physics, Quantum physics: From the foundations to quantum technologies, and Theoretical physics.
