Quantum technologies are one of the most promising future technologies and are receiving a great deal of attention in the research landscape. Fraunhofer ITWM in Kaiserslautern focuses on Quantum Computing with the aim of using quantum processes to solve complex problems in science, business, and administration more efficiently. To transfer knowledge to the industry, the institute offers seminars for companies.
The researchers at Fraunhofer ITWM focus on developing stable quantum hardware, quantum algorithms, and hybrid approaches that combine classical and quantum computing power. Particular attention is paid to the optimization of material and process flows, image processing, and the solution of problems in mechanical engineering, logistics, and materials research. The expertise of the researchers combines basic research with a practical application orientation in order to offer companies early access to quantum applications.
For those who wish to further their education, Fraunhofer ITWM offers training and continuing education courses on quantum computing, quantum algorithms, and related topics. These courses are aimed at researchers, engineers, and specialists who want to tap into the potential of the quantum world for specific problems in their field of work. The offerings range from introductions to quantum logic and practical implementations to seminars in which participants can develop individual solutions for their own problems.
Further information on current training courses and research work can be found here on the website under Quantum Computing.
Our current certified training formats:
- Quantum Computing Basics – an introduction to the fundamental concepts of quantum computers
- Quantum Machine Learning – investigation of the interactions between Quantum Computing and modern methods of Machine Learning
- Quantum Image Processing – applications of quantum algorithms in image processing
- High-Level Quantum Computing Training for Decision Makers – a two-day course for executives and decision makers who want to understand the strategic potential of Quantum Computing without delving deeply into mathematics or physics
These training courses are organized in collaboration with other Fraunhofer Institutes, the Fraunhofer Alliance for Big Data and Artificial Intelligence, and the Fraunhofer Academy.
Please contact us if you are interested in a course tailored to your company’s specific needs – we also offer these courses directly at your premises. By the way: Young scientists can also gain experience in Quantum Computing during an internship with us. Read more about the experiences of our interns here on our website.
