Research Internships at Microsoft provide a dynamic environment for research careers with a network of world-class research labs led by globally-recognized scientists and engineers, who pursue innovation in a range of scientific and technical disciplines to help solve complex challenges in diverse fields, including computing, healthcare, economics, and the environment. Microsoft's Quantum program is focused on building a scalable quantum computer to solve problems beyond the reach of classical machines. Microsoft has invested heavily in quantum error correction and fault-tolerance as these are central elements to scaling quantum computers to utility. This area remains a fertile ground for impactful innovation and thus great opportunity to collaborate with a world-class team to move the field forward -- whether it be through the development of codes, fault-tolerant operations, decoding algorithms, or the development of theoretical and software tools that accelerate progress.
