an IBP member program

Academic Level:
Graduate Students (Masters)
Graduate Students (PhD)

Description:
Interested in doing graduate research at the intersection of mathematics and quantum information science?

Join the MathQuantum community at UMD College Park through a MathQuantum Graduate Fellowship.

MathQuantum fellowships aim to support current math students interested in entering the world of quantum computing, and also current quantum information science students interested in strengthening their math skills.

Therefore, ideal fellows:

a) current undergrad math students with little or no experience in quantum information science (QIS), who want to enter this exciting research area, OR

b) current undergrad students with moderate or high experience in QIS who want to advance their QIS work with stronger math skills

Interested undergrads should apply to the MathQuantum fellowship on our website and simultaneously submit their UMD College Park graduate school applications (following the respective graduate program's instructions). Students applying to Applied Mathematics (AMSC), Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, and Physics will be given priority.

MathQuantum fellows enjoy the following benefits:

- $37,000 stipend and tuition for 1 year

- $1,000 funding for professional travel

- Mentored research and interdisciplinary training in applying mathematical methods to QIS problems

- Coursework and seminars in theoretical and applied mathematics for QIS

- Internship opportunities at quantum companies and government labs

- Professional development and networking opportunities (including on Broader Impacts and proposal writing)

- One-on-one career mentoring and guidance

- Community-building and outreach activities

More info about benefits and expectations can be found on our website. Questions? Want to meet? Reach out to Director of Education Daniel Serrano.
