| 3 | +There may be some overlaps with MAT 3420, Quantum Computing, see https://www.uio.no/studier/emner/matnat/math/MAT3420/index-eng.html. In general, we can recommend our students both courses. |
| 4 | +FYS3415 has FYS3110 (or similar courses) as a mandatory prerequisite. The course will have both experimentalists and theorists as participants. |

| 86 | +We have two new study directions, one in the Physics MSc program |
| 87 | +- Quantum Science and Quantum Technology, https://www.uio.no/english/studies/programmes/physics-master/programme-options/quantum-technology/index.html |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +and one in the Computational Science program, |
| 90 | +- Quantum Information Science and Technology, see https://www.uio.no/english/studies/programmes/computational-science-master/programme-options/quantum-technology/index.html |
| 91 | + |
| 92 | +For these programs we have now the following existing courses |
| 93 | + |
| 94 | +- Modern Quantum Mechanics (under revision fall 2025), FYS4110/9410, https://www.uio.no/studier/emner/matnat/fys/FYS4110/ |
| 95 | +- Quantum Computing and Quantum Machine Learning, FYS5419/9419, https://www.uio.no/studier/emner/matnat/fys/FYS5419/ |
| 96 | +- Quantum Information theory, MAT 4430 https://www.uio.no/studier/emner/matnat/math/MAT4430/index.html |
| 97 | + |
| 98 | +We should aim at developing at least two more courses. This can and perhaps shold be done together with the Math department |
