Quantum Information Science

The Quantum Research Initiative (QRI) is a new strategic initiative, launched in January 2026, to build foundational expertise in Quantum Information Science (QIS) and Quantum Computing. This multi-year program is designed to strategically position our researchers at the forefront of this technological shift. In phase 1 of QRI, we are focused on leveraging and amplifying the immense intellectual capital we already possess across disciplines—from advanced sensing and materials science to signal processing and computational modeling.
