About Quantum at Mines and in Colorado
Colorado is a federally designatedQuantum Tech Huband home to the largest concentration of quantum companies in the U.S. Mines is a key partner in theElevate Quantum consortium, which is positioning Colorado as a global hub for quantum innovation and workforce development. Mines complements its well-equippedShared Instrumentation Facilitieswith unique resources that create rare opportunities for advancing discovery and application. Examples include theEdgar Experimental Mine—a flexible underground environment for testing quantum technologies—andQuantum COmmons, which will provide state-of-the-art quantum device fabrication and measurement services to incubate startups and accelerate innovation across the quantum ecosystem. Mines launched one of thefirst interdisciplinary master's programs in Quantum Engineering in the United States (2020). It is now launching a new BS degree in quantum systems engineering, the first of its kind in the nation.

The Quantum Engineering Program brings together29 faculty members from seven departmentsat Mines. Their research spans a wide range of topics, including quantum algorithms for near-term intermediate-scale quantum computers, quantum complexity, spin qubits in silicon, materials for quantum information, the interface of machine learning with quantum systems, and the use of quantum sensors for discoveries in astro-particle physics. Additional areas include cryogenic electronics to enhance quantum readout, quantum-proof encryption, and quantum algorithms applied to challenges in materials science, chemistry, and petroleum engineering.
