Deploying Quantum Capability in Education and Research

Quantum computing education is often limited to theory, simulators, or remote cloud access. While these tools are essential, they do not provide exposure to real system operation.

EduQit enables education and research institutions to work directly with an on-site quantum computing system, building from hardware to application and long-term operational capability.

What makes it different

  • Real, on-site quantum systems (not cloud-only access).
  • Hands-on interaction with hardware, control, and operation.
  • Modular and extensible architecture, reducing technological lock-in.
  • Optional cloud (QaaS) access as a complement to on-site operation.

What does EduQit Include?

EduQit provides all the elements needed to assemble and operate a fully functional quantum computer

The hardware package covers the complete physical stack of a quantum computer, delivered and integrated by Qilimanjaro:

Cryogenic Platform

Dilution refrigerator with cryogenic wiring, thermalisation stages and shielding to host and protect the quantum processor.

Control Electronics

RF and microwave electronics for signal generation, conditioning and readout, adapted to analog, digital or hybrid systems.

Quantum Processing Units (QPUs)

Superconducting quantum processors, available in analog, digital or hybrid configurations depending on the EduQit model.

Support Infrastructure

Racks, power distribution, servers and networking required to integrate the quantum system on-premises.

On the software side, EduQit includes Qilimanjaro’s own control and programming stack, designed specifically for education and research:

QiliSDK

High-level software for designing, programming and running quantum circuits and algorithms.

QiliCore

Low-level control software for calibration, pulse control, experiment orchestration and hardware monitoring.

Own your Quantum Resources

From security to scalability, on-prem delivery gives you full control of the stack.

Turnkey Access

From design to deployment, we deliver your quantum computer ready to use, and empower your team to keep it running.

Security & Sovereignty

Full data control, aligned with European technological sovereignty.

Acceleration

Enhance your current compute capabilities by integrating them with your new quantum system.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about EduQit.

  • Definition and positioning

Yes. EduQit is formed by on real, deployable quantum computing systems. It is not a simulator or a purely cloud-based service.

No. EduQit is not designed to maximise performance or demonstrate quantum advantage. Its objective is education, capability building, and system-level understanding.

  • Audience and scope

EduQit is designed for universities, research institutions, and public-sector organisations involved in education, training, and early-stage research in quantum computing.

Yes. EduQit supports laboratory courses, project-based learning, thesis projects, and experimental research activities.

No. EduQit complements theoretical courses and simulators by providing hands-on experience with real quantum computing systems.

  • Core differentiation

EduQit is centred on on-site, hands-on interaction with a real quantum system, including direct exposure to system operation beyond programming.

Cloud access to analog and digital quantum computers can be included as a complement, but EduQit prioritises physical operation and learning at the system level, which are not accessible through cloud-only models.

EduQit provides hands-on exposure to the full quantum computing system stack, including interaction with cryogenic environments, control electronics, system wiring, calibration and characterization workflows, and basic troubleshooting activities.

This system-level experience is an integral part of the educational approach and is typically inaccessible in simulator-based or cloud-only environments.

EduQit enables direct interaction with real quantum systems at the operational level, including system bring-up, calibration, troubleshooting, and comparative paradigm analysis across quantum computing models.

This supports long-term capability building by exposing learners to the realities of operating and evolving quantum computing systems.

  • Advanced learning capabilities

Yes. EduQit supports digital, analog, and hybrid quantum computing paradigms within the same educational infrastructure.

This multimodal capability enables comparative learning, allowing students and researchers to understand how different paradigms impact system architecture, control electronics, cryogenic operation, calibration strategies, and overall system behaviour.

 

Exposure to multiple quantum computing paradigms enables students and researchers to develop system-level engineering judgement.

By comparing digital and analog approaches on the same platform, learners can understand architectural trade-offs, operational constraints, and paradigm-dependent differences that are otherwise abstract or hidden.

EduQit can optionally be integrated with classical high-performance computing (HPC) environments to enable hybrid quantum–classical workflows.

When enabled, this integration is used as a learning opportunity to understand data flows, orchestration, and practical constraints in real hybrid computing environments, rather than as a performance-oriented feature.

HPC integration is not required for EduQit operation and depends on institutional context and objectives.

  • Institutional &policy framing

No. EduQit is designed with a modular and extensible architecture that reduces dependency on a single vendor.

EduQit is a deployable system, but it is positioned primarily as a strategic educational and innovation infrastructure rather than a commercial performance product.

Yes. EduQit aligns with public priorities such as advanced skills development, technological sovereignty, and long-term capability building.

EduQit differs from other educational quantum computers in its purpose: the system is delivered by co-assembling the different components together with qualified Quantum Engineers, providing the needed knowledge for control, operation and reconfiguration.
