ETH Zurich is a magnet for talented people from all over the world. It also thrives to attract the greatest talents for its Master’s programme. Five outstanding students started their Master's in Physics in September 2021 with a ETH Excellence Scholarship. This support enables them to concentrate fully on their studies – or to study at ETH Zurich at all.

ETH physicists have modified one of the major schemes for quantum error correction and put it into practice, demonstrating that they can substantially prolong the lifetime of quantum states — a crucial ingredient for future large-scale quantum computers.
