At the Institute of Quantum Technologies in Ulm, we develop precision instruments for space travel based on quantum technologies and promote the transfer to areas such as aviation, digitalisation, security, transport and energy. Together with other DLR institutes, we play a pioneering role in quantum technology research fields and combine basic research with engineering implementation.
At the Institute of Quantum Technologies in Ulm, we develop precision instruments for space applications based on quantum technologies and bring them to prototype maturity together with industry. In addition, we are driving forward the transfer to aeronautics, digitalisation, energy, security and transport.
Together with the DLR Institute of Satellite Geodesy and Inertial Sensing in Hanover and the DLR Galileo Competence Centre in Oberpfaffenhofen, we play a pioneering role in quantum technology research and application fields.
What specialities are we looking for?
Mechanical engineering
Electrical engineering
Aerospace engineering
other engineering sciences
Physics
Mathematics
Computer science
The research work of our four core departments Quantum Metrology, Quantum Information and Communication, Quantum Nanophysics and Electromagnetic Quantum Sensors is complemented and supported by the three cross-sectional departments Quantum Engineering, Integration of Micro- and Nanosystems and Theoretical Quantum Physics. We have an interdisciplinary approach: Theoretical basic research and experimental tests meet engineering implementation.
