Website Tampere University

Tampere University offers thesis and internship opportunities in quantum science and its applications.

Research activities at the university extend across several areas, including:

  • novel quantum materials and metamaterials
  • quantum emitters and lasers
  • quantum photonics
  • theory of quantum many-body systems and quantum information

Thesis and internship opportunities exist across these fields.

See the full list of research groups at Tampere University below.

Please do not hesitate to contact the contact persons of the groups if you are interested in available opportunities.

If you wish help in finding a quantum-related thesis topic, please get in touch with the EduQ contacts at Tampere University.
