Quantum@MIT Initiative

The Quantum@MIT Initiative will accelerate MIT’s already world-leading efforts in quantum science and engineering by fostering greater collaboration among campus labs and with MIT Lincoln Laboratory, and by marshalling resources to further substantiate MIT’s commitment to lead in quantum science and engineering. In practical terms, the initiative will:

(*) Convene the MIT community to define intellectual goals, or missions, where cross-cutting, collaborative research will lead to outcomes that would be difficult for individual labs to achieve alone; and
(*) Create meaningful connections, engagement, and collaborations between MIT researchers and potential industry and government partners.

Quantum@MIT, a presidential special initiative, will be administratively housed within the purview of the vice president for research — specifically, affiliated with the Research Laboratory for Electronics — and will have a dedicated administrative team and an advisory committee to be appointed in the future.
