Theoretical research establishes unified way to quantify vital quantum properties
The foundation of nearly all quantum information applications—such as computation and communication—rely on the quantum properties of superposition and entanglement.
The University of Rhode Island (URI) was founded in 1893 in Kingston, Rhode Island. In the following years URI expanded to multi-campuses in Narragansett, Providence and West Greenwich. Today there are more than 33,000 undergraduate and graduate students. The Colleges of Pharmacy, Oceanography and Nursing are recognized nationally for excellence.
