Quantum Technologies Summer School
Summer School
Introduction to Quantum Information and Technologies
2 - 4 July 2014, Bucharest
The Summer School is organized by the Research Center for Spatial Information - CEOSpaceTech in the frame of the STAR project Competence Centre for Smart Sensors and Big Data Technology for Space Applications and aims to provide a general introduction to the fast developing fields of quantum information and quantum technologies. The School is intended to students and researchers interested in having an overview of the field. The lectures are self-contained and accessible to a general audience.
