Quantum Simulation, Theory & Algorithms Research

Institute for Convergence Research and Education in Advanced TEchnology (iCREATE)

Department of Quantum Information

Yonsei University

We are interested in contributing to a more advanced and sustainable world through the development of quantum technologies. Our research spans quantum computing, quantum simulation, and quantum information science, with a focus on addressing complex scientific challenges. By deepening our understanding of quantum phenomena and exploring the frontiers of quantum algorithms, machine learning, and real-world applications such as drug discovery, we aim to make meaningful contributions to science and technology.

We are currently recruiting highly motivated M.S., Ph.D., and undergraduate intern students to join the QSTAR Lab at Yonsei University (International Campus). Students from diverse backgrounds—physics, computer science, electrical engineering, applied math, etc.—are welcome. Interested students are encouraged to contact Prof. Kyunghyun Baek via email with your CV.
