Sungkyunkwan University


Overview of Quantum Technology Research

SKKU is the only institute developing the major quantum platforms of both superconducting and trapped ion qubits in Korea. In addition to research on quantum computing and information hardware, SKKU is also actively pursuing studies on quantum algorithms for real-world applications, particularly led by SAINT (SKKU Advanced Institute of Nanotechnology). Quantum Information Research Support Center (Qcenter) of SKKU provides research assistance for domestic researchers as well as educational activities for the next generation.
