  • Turku

Website University of Turku

Research groups at the University of Turku carry out world-class research and involve students (BSc, MSc, PhD) in their work through thesis projects and internships.

The research at the university includes, for example, the following topics:

  • quantum optics
  • open quantum systems
  • quantum thermodynamics
  • quantum reservoir computing
  • complex quantum networks
  • organic optolectronics
  • quantum gases

Thesis and internship opportunities are available in these fields.

See the full list of research groups at the University of Turku 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 the University of Turku.
