Students of the Faculty of Physics and Technology of Al-Farabi KazNU Participate in the Programme of the Russian Quantum Center. SDG 4 and SDG 9

The Faculty of Physics and Technology of Al-Farabi Kazakh National University continues to actively expand its international cooperation in the field of advanced technologies. According to the official letter from the Russian Quantum Center, a number of prospective educational and scientific initiatives have been developed, aimed at training highly qualified specialists in the domain of quantum technologies.

As part of the programme, students are scheduled to visit quantum computing laboratories in Moscow, where advanced Russian experimental models and prototypes of quantum processors are being developed. During the visit, participants will be able to observe a prototype of a 50-qubit quantum computer based on single rubidium atoms, meet research groups, study the original design of a quantum processor consisting of 40 superconducting qubits, ask questions, and exchange views on current trends in the development of quantum technologies.

Contribution of KazNU Students to the Achievement of SDGs

Participation in the Russian Quantum Center’s project contributes to the implementation of key Sustainable Development Goals:

SDG 4 “Quality Education”

– access for students to advanced knowledge in quantum engineering;

– engagement of learners in a modern research environment;

– development of skills for working with high-tech scientific equipment.

SDG 9 “Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure”

– development of human capital for the future quantum and digital economy;

– advancement of research in the field of quantum technologies;

– strengthening of international scientific and technological cooperation.

The programme is aimed at developing students’ professional competencies in quantum computing, involving young researchers in work with unique experimental facilities, and introducing them to modern international practices in high-technology fields.
