CIQM Education and Outreach
Education Mission Statement: Develop education, outreach, and professional development programs that leverage the strengths of Center partners and prepare students to become leaders in the field of quantum materials through outstanding performance in research, education, collaboration and outreach.
The Center’s activities aim to effect students to the point that they imagine themselves as the problem solvers who deliver the quantum devices that today are unimaginable. Research on these 4 research areas requires mastery of distinct concepts and investigative tools. The utility of the research on the three materials is anchored in quantum phenomena. Quantum phenomena encompass concepts that are widely understood.
The College Network schools extend the science & education program of our Center to a diverse group of students at Community and 4-year colleges, who would not normally gain experience in this area: Bunker Hill Community College, Mt Holyoke College, and Wellesley College in the Boston area, and Prince George's Community College and Gallaudet University in the Washington area. Mt Holyoke and Wellesley are women's colleges, and Gallaudet serves deaf and hard of hearing students.
Our Center prepares students and postdocs to become future educators and researchers in quantum materials and devices, and provides pathways from high school to undergraduate STEM degree programs.
Visitor Program has recently been added build a community between research institutions in quantum materials. It allows students and researchers to visit our Center for collaborative research and to exchange knowledge and expertise. Current participants include Columbia University, Brookhaven - and Sandia National Laboratories. We plan to extend the visiting program inside the US and internationally.
