About Us

Amity Quantum Mission (AQM)

Amity University is at the forefront of advancing quantum science and technology. With a strong focus on research, innovation, and capacity building, the initiative aims to contribute significantly to India’s technological leadership in the emerging quantum era. Amity Quantum Mission (AQM) is a strategic, university-wide initiative aimed at establishing Amity as a national and global centre of excellence in Quantum Science, Engineering, and Technology.

By leveraging its strong multidisciplinary ecosystem, AQM integrates cutting-edge research, academic excellence, and innovation to develop transformative solutions in quantum computing, communication, sensing, and materials.

The mission seeks to translate cutting-edge research into funded projects, industry collaborations, and human capital development, nurturing the next generation of quantum scientists and innovators.

National Alignment

AQM is closely aligned with India’s National Quantum Mission (2023–2031), a landmark initiative with an outlay of ₹6,003.65 crore. Through this alignment, Amity is strengthening quantum research infrastructure, fostering next-generation talent, and advancing indigenous technologies—playing a pivotal role in positioning India as a global hub for quantum innovation.

Advancing the Future of Quantum Innovation

"To accelerate this vision, I am pleased to announce the sanction of ₹20 crores (INR) as an initial dedicated investment towards advancing a new era in Quantum Science & Technology at Amity. This funding will support the creation of state-of-the-art research infrastructure and high-impact, application-driven projects, ensuring that our efforts translate into meaningful technological outcomes."

Vision

To position Amity University as a leading global hub for quantum research, innovation, and human capital development—contributing to India’s strategic autonomy in quantum technologies by 2047.
