Are you a master's student at ASP? Join the EU DigiQ Network! 

DigiQ is a European Master Program in Quantum Science and Technology, of which the Abbe School of Photonics is a core affiliated partner.

All ASP students (enrolled in Photonics or Quantum Science & Technology) are eligible to participate in DigiQ networks, which will reinforce your studies with hands-on experience in quantum technology, develop a professional network that will last far beyond your study program, and maintain consistent contact with top experts in the field. Each DigiQ Network has its own theme and curates a set of events unique to it. You may be visiting a quantum computing lab, attending a career symposium, or discussing the mysteries of quantum physics in a pub — anywhere across Europe! Mobility funding, travel stipends and further financial support are available for DigiQ students (see www.digiq.eu/mobilityExternal link).
