Partnership for Education and the advancement of quantum and nano-Sciences
PEAQS Partners
The PEAQS partnership leverages the complementary research capabilities and expertise of each institution, and combines the access, experience, programs and resources of each partner institution to accomplish research, community, and education goals. This enables innovative collaborative science within a well-integrated environment in which student participants can be trained, mentored and supported in multiple research settings throughout the course of their undergraduate education.
