Help for Quantum Optics

Post by quant » Tue Sep 08, 2009 8:26 am

I want to know which are the good schools for quantum optics? Not necessarily the usual MIT Harvard Caltech... but anyone with some inside information? I heard that University of New Mexico is ranked 1 or 2 for quantum optics- are there any other such schools which are not in the top 10 but are very good for this field?

After all the talk on this forum about what makes a program "good" or not you think people would've dropped this idea of arbitrary rankings by now. There is no objective criterion for judging the quality of a program in general, let alone in a specific subject area. Therefore any ranking assigned to a program is highly suspect and generally meaningless.

Be sure to go to the exact schools random internet fucks tell you to otherwise you will be unsuccessful in your career, your future wife will leave you for an out of work blues musician on welfare, people will always fart while you're stuck in elevators, and you'll die an early death of a curable disease that was caught too late and your angry kids will piss all over your grave.
