We are happy to announce the upcoming 4EU+ Master-level course “Quan­tum Information and Quan­tum Many-Body Theory”, running from 26 February to 19 June 2026. The course is offered within the framework of the 4EU+ Eu­ro­pean Uni­ver­si­ty Alliance and jointly delivered by Uni­ver­si­ty of Warsaw, Uni­ver­si­ty of Milan, Uni­ver­si­ty of Geneva, Hei­del­berg Uni­ver­si­ty, Sorbonne Uni­ver­si­ty, and Charles Uni­ver­si­ty.

Responding to the second quan­tum revolution – the move towards direct control and engineering of quan­tum systems – this course equips students with a strong theo­re­ti­cal foundation in quan­tum information and many-body theory. Participants will explore key concepts such as entanglement, non-locality and quan­tum spin systems – gaining insight into the latest developments in those fields. These foundations are essential for emerging quan­tum technologies, including quan­tum information processing. Furthermore, the course will help the participants to develop competencies to engage in self-organized cross-university and interdisciplinary collaborations via online groupwork as well as to give and receive peer-feedback on results.

The course consists of online lectures and a summer masterclass at Sorbonne Uni­ver­si­ty.

Registration is open until 19 February, 2026

The 4EU+ Eu­ro­pean Uni­ver­si­ty Alliance brings together eight comprehensive, research-intensive public universities from four regions of Europe, working collaboratively to strengthen education, research, and innovation through integrated cross-border programmes. The vision is to establish a truly integrated Eu­ro­pean uni­ver­si­ty system, marked by a new quality of cooperation in education, research, innovation and outreach.
