B.Tech CSE Quantum Computing

B.Tech (CSE - Quantum Computing)

Quantum computing extends conventional computing by applying principles of quantum mechanics to process information in new ways, creating possibilities for advances in computation, optimization, and information security. Working in this field requires strong foundations in computer science, mathematics, and physics, alongside the ability to develop and evaluate quantum algorithms. As quantum technologies progress from theoretical research towards practical applications, specialized knowledge of quantum programming and post-quantum security is becoming increasingly relevant. The four-year B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering with a specialization in Quantum Computing at Chandigarh University, Uttar Pradesh, combines core computer science with linear algebra, probability, quantum mechanics, quantum gates, circuits, and algorithms. Qi skit programming, simulator-based experimentation and access to real quantum hardware through open cloud platforms, where available, help students evaluate concepts, analyses results and develop a foundation for advanced study, research, and emerging technology applications.

Scope

As quantum technologies advance towards early commercial applications, organizations are exploring their potential in computation while preparing for emerging security challenges. McKinsey’s Quantum Technology Monitor estimates that quantum computing, communication and sensing together could be worth up to USD 97 billion by 2035. In India, the National Quantum Mission, approved with an outlay of approximately ₹6,000 crore for 2023–24 to 2030–31, reflects the country’s commitment to advancing this field. Meanwhile, NIST’s post-quantum cryptography standards (FIPS 203, 204 and 205) are prompting banks and government agencies to begin upgrading their security systems. The B.Tech. CSE program with a specialization in Quantum Computing at Chandigarh University, Uttar Pradesh, develops relevant capabilities through quantum programming, algorithm development, error correction and post-quantum cryptography.

Message from the Head of Department

Dr. Charanjeet Singh
Dr. Charanjeet SinghDean Engineering and Computing

Engineering has always been about turning an idea into something that works. That could be a bridge, a machine, an electronic system, a manufacturing process, or a technology that solves an everyday problem.

At the School of Engineering, our focus is to give students the opportunity to experience this process themselves. We want students to spend time in laboratories, work on projects, understand how things work, interact with industry, and learn from practical experience—not just prepare for examinations.

I also believe that an engineering degree should help students become independent thinkers. There will be problems for which there is no ready-made answer. Learning how to approach such problems with patience, creativity, and confidence is an important part of becoming an engineer.

Our faculty will work closely with students to develop their technical abilities while also encouraging teamwork, communication and professional responsibility. My message to our students is simple: stay curious, keep experimenting, and never be afraid to ask why.
