Future Quantum Computation News Today

Westside Pavilion, the former indoor mall that faced an uncertain future, is set to undergo a transformation into the UCLA Research Park after being acquired by the UC Board of Regents for $700 million.

With the acquisition, UCLA will create an engine of innovation, discovery and economic growth for Southern California and beyond.

The quantum innovation hub will produce advances in computing, sensing and other areas while training a new workforce for the burgeoning field.

The center, which is jointly operated by the UCLA College Division of Physical Sciences and the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering, brings together scientists and engineers at the leading edge of quantum information science and technology.

The funds will support faculty at the UCLA Center for Quantum Science and Engineering.
