Quantum Cryptography: Classes & Degree Programs

[Miss Rellum]

If I want to go into quantum cryptography, what classes should I take and what colleges are there that offer this degree? Thank you so much!

Math classes. A google search should reveal which institutions, if any, offer a degree specifically in QC.

As a student currently in my second year of a quantum key distribution project, I would say courses in QM, advanced optics and solid state devices (to get an understanding of the light sources and detectors used in these systems) are all essential.

I doubt quantum cryptography exists anywhere as a degree in itself. Rather, it would be something you might specialize in with a degree in physics/applied physics.
