The Quantum Technologies minor at #USAFA equips cadets from any major to lead in emerging quantum fields.
 
Through hands-on learning and strong technical foundations, cadets are prepared to tackle complex challenges and contribute to research, acquisition programs and strategic decision-making across the usairforce and usspaceforce.
 
Dr. Monte Anderson, Assistant Professor for the Quantum Technologies minor, said, “Quantum technologies will make significant impacts in timing, sensors, communication and computers in the very near future. We want to teach fundamentals in a way that is accessible to students so we can train quantum leaders for the U.S. Air Force.”
