Purdue University Joins the Chicago Quantum Exchange (CQE) in a collaborative effort to advance the science and engineering of quantum information, build the future quantum workforce, and drive the nation’s quantum economy.
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Purdue University has joined the Chicago Quantum Exchange (CQE) in the collaborative effort to advance the science and engineering of quantum information, build the future quantum workforce, and drive the nation’s quantum economy.
As the newest member of the CQE, an intellectual hub that has led the Midwest in becoming a central driver of U.S. leadership in quantum technologies, Purdue joins interdisciplinary research activity anchored by the University of Chicago, the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory and Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and Northwestern University. The CQE is based at the University of Chicago’s Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering and includes nearly 50 corporate, international, nonprofit and regional partners.
Central to the membership is the Purdue Quantum Science and Engineering Institute (PQSEI), which brings together leading quantum researchers and leverages collaborations with industry, government and academia to drive discovery of quantum phenomena and development of chip-scale quantum systems for tomorrow’s technology.
