Existence of Quantum Technology master’s programs in China

Determine whether any universities in China currently offer one- or two-year master’s degree programs that specialize in Quantum Technology, defined as programs focused on at least one of quantum computing, quantum sensing, quantum communication, quantum simulation, or quantum engineering devices, as per the criteria used in the global survey of QT master’s programs.

Background

The paper identifies 86 master’s programs worldwide that meet specific criteria for Quantum Technology specialization, but notes a gap in verified information for China despite its extensive research activity and funding in quantum technologies.

Within the regional analysis, the authors explicitly state that it is unclear whether any QT master’s programs exist in China and highlight that prior commentators have also observed a lack of clear information on this point, acknowledging it as a limitation of the paper.

Although there has been extensive research and funding in the field of QT in China⁴³, it is unclear whether there are any QT master's programs available in China.
