The aim of the Institute for Quantum Technologies in Ulm is to develop precision instruments for space applications based on quantum technologies and to bring them to prototype maturity in close cooperation with industry. It thus builds a bridge between basic research and industry. Together with the Institute for Satellite Geodesy and Inertial Sensing in Hanover and the Galileo Competence Centre in Oberpfaffenhofen, the institute in Ulm plays a pioneering role in these fields of research and application.

The research of the three core departments Quantum Metrology, Quantum Information and Communication, and Quantum Nanophysics is complemented and supported by the three cross-sectional departments Quantum Engineering, Integration of Micro- and Nanosystems and Theoretical Quantum Physics. The institute has an interdisciplinary orientation: Fundamental theoretical research and experimental tests meet engineering.
