Open House Campus Garching October 3

Discover and try things out: We have invited you to experience research up close for a whole day.

At the Garching research campus, visitors were invited to experience science in lectures, hands-on activities, guided tours and much more. Whether young or old, there were numerous activities for every one on this day: students, staff and external guests. In addition to TUM, many other research institutions such as the Max Planck and Fraunhofer Institutes took part in the day of action.

Lecture and lab tour

MQV insights: How quantum computers are changing our world

  • Tuesday, 4/29/2025
  • 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm

Event location
Erlangen

Public event

Target audience
publically

How could quantum computers make our society more sustainable? And what technological challenges do we still need to overcome to make quantum computers stable and reliable? Answers to these exciting questions and a guided tour through a real quantum computer laboratory will be provided by researchers from Friedrich-Alexander University.

Register now

Due to the limited capacity on site, we are unfortunately unable to offer all visitors to the lecture a guided tour of the lab. We have therefore prepared registrations WITH and WITHOUT a lab tour.

  • 18:00: Short lecture: How quantum computing can make our society more sustainable (Prof. Dr. Michael Hartmann, Chair of Theoretical Physics)
  • 18:15: Short lecture: How can we make quantum computers stable and reliable? (Prof. Dr. Christopher Eichler, Chair of Experimental Physics)
  • 18:30: Guided tour of the rapidly growing laboratory environment with cryostats, i.e. large cooling devices designed to ensure the low temperatures that are sometimes necessary for quantum computing
